public void and(BitSet set)

Enabled: Performs a logical AND of this target bit set with the argument bit set. This bit set is modified so that each bit in it has the value true if and only if it both initially had the value true and the corresponding bit in the bit set argument also had the value true.

or

public void or(BitSet set)

Enabled: Performs a logical OR of this bit set with the bit set argument. This bit set is modified so that a bit in it has the value true if and only if it either already had the value true or the corresponding bit in the bit set argument has the value true.

Parameters:

set - a bit set.

xor

public void xor(BitSet set)

• The bit initially has the value false, and the corresponding bit in the argument has the value true.

---

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Suppressed: Returns a hash code value for this bit set. The has code depends only on which bits have been set within this BitSet. The algorithm used to compute it may be described as follows.

Suppose the bits in the BitSet were to be stored in an array of long integers called, say, bits, in such a manner that bit k is set in the BitSet (for nonnegative values of k) if and only if the expression

((k>>6) < bits.length) && ((bits[k>>6] & (1L << (bit & 0x3F))) != 0)

is true. Then the following definition of the hashCode method would be a correct implementation of the actual algorithm:

 public int hashCode() {
 long h = 1234;
 for (int i = bits.length; --i >= 0; ) {
 h ^= bits[i] * (i + 1);
 }
 return (int)((h >> 32) ^ h);
 }

Note that the hash code values change if the set of bits is altered.

Overrides the hashCode method of Object.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

a hash code value for this bit set.

java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object), java.util.Hashtable

---

size

public int size()

Enabled: Returns the number of bits of space actually in use by this BitSet to represent bit values. The maximum element in the set is the size - 1st element.

Returns:

the number of bits currently in this bit set.

---

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Suppressed: Compares this object against the specified object. The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a Bitset object that has exactly the same set of bits set to true as this bit set. That is, for every nonnegative int index k,

((BitSet)obj).get(k) == this.get(k)

must be true. The current sizes of the two bit sets are not compared.

Overrides the equals method of Object.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - the object to compare with.

Returns:

true if the objects are the same; false otherwise.

See Also:

java.util.BitSet#size()

---

clone

public Object clone()

Suppressed: Cloning this BitSet produces a new BitSet that is equal to it. The clone of the bit set is another bit set that has exactly the same bits set to true as this bit set and the same current size.

Overrides the clone method of Object.

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Returns:

a clone of this bit set.

See Also:

java.util.BitSet#size()

readObject

private void readObject(ObjectInputStream in)
 throws IOException,
 ClassNotFoundException

This override of readObject makes sure unitsInUse is set properly when deserializing a bitset

IOException

ClassNotFoundException

---

toString

public String toString()

Suppressed: Returns a string representation of this bit set. For every index for which this BitSet contains a bit in the set state, the decimal representation of that index is included in the result. Such indices are listed in order from lowest to highest, separated by ", " (a comma and a space) and surrounded by braces, resulting in the usual mathematical notation for a set of integers.

Overrides the toString method of Object.

Example:

 BitSet drPepper = new BitSet();

Now drPepper.toString() returns "{}".

 drPepper.set(2);

Now drPepper.toString() returns "{2}".

 drPepper.set(4);
 drPepper.set(10);

Now drPepper.toString() returns "{2, 4, 10}".

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a string representation of this bit set.
