BitVector Description

A pure-Python memory-efficient packed representation for bit arrays BitVector is a Python class that presents a pure-Python memory efficient packed representation for bit arrays.Version 2.0 provides much additional functionality that was requested by folks in the data mining community. The class now includes faster methods for counting bits, for finding the position of the next set bit, for calculating the rank of a bit, for determining the Jaccard and Hamming distances, etc. Also included in the new version are methods that should prove useful to folks who play with cryptography algorithms. There is now a method that calculates the greatest common divisor of two bit vectors and a method that finds the multiplicative inverse of a bit vector vis-a-vis a given modulus.The class supports the following operators/methods: __getitem__ __setitem__ __len__ __getslice__ __str__ __iter__ __contains__ __int__ __add__ __eq__, __ne__, __lt__, __le__, __gt__, __ge__ '|' for bitwise or '&' for bitwise and '^' for bitwise xor '~' for bitwise inversion '' for circular shift to the right '+' for concatenation intValue(), __int__ for returning the integer value divide_into_two permute unpermute pad_from_left pad_from_right read_bits_from_file write_to_file read_bits_from_fileobject write_bits_to_fileobject slice assignment reset setValue count_bits count_bit_sparse jaccard_similarity jaccard_distance hamming_distance next_set_bit rank_of_bit_set_at_index isPowerOf2 isPowerOf2_sparse reverse gcd multiplicative_inverse Requirements: · Python
