Method GetBits

GetBits(int, int)

Returns a ulong which has bits copied from this array.

Declaration

public readonly ulong GetBits(int pos, int numBits = 1)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
int	pos	Index of the first bit to get.
int	numBits	Number of bits to get (must be between 1 and 64).

Returns

Type	Description
ulong	A ulong which has bits copied from this array.

Remarks

The source bits in this array run from index pos up to (but not including) pos + numBits. No exception is thrown if pos + numBits exceeds the length.

The first source bit is copied to the lowest bit of the ulong; the second source bit is copied to the second-lowest bit of the ulong; and so forth. Any remaining bits in the ulong will be 0.

Exceptions

Type	Condition
ArgumentException	Thrown if pos is out of bounds or if numBits is not between 1 and 64.
