Function std.bitmanip.BitArray.toString

Return a string representation of this BitArray.

Two format specifiers are supported:

  • %s which prints the bits as an array, and
  • %b which prints the bits as 8-bit byte packets
    • separated with an underscore.

    Prototype

    void toString(
  void delegate(const(char)[]) sink,
  std.format.FormatSpec!(char) fmt
) const;

    Example

    import std.format : format;

debug(bitarray) printf("BitArray.toString unittest\n");
auto b = BitArray([0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]);

auto s1 = format("%s", b);
assert(s1 == "[0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1]");

auto s2 = format("%b", b);
assert(s2 == "00001111_00001111");
