  2. Bit array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_array

    Assuming its size (or length) to be n bits, the array can be used to specify a subset of the domain (e.g. {0, 1, 2, ..., n−1}), where a 1-bit indicates the presence and a 0-bit the absence of a number in the set. This set data structure uses about n/w words of space, where w is the number of bits in each machine word.

  4. Bitwise operation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation

    For unsigned integers, the bitwise complement of a number is the "mirror reflection" of the number across the half-way point of the unsigned integer's range. For example, for 8-bit unsigned integers, NOT x = 255 - x , which can be visualized on a graph as a downward line that effectively "flips" an increasing range from 0 to 255, to a ...

  5. Bit manipulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_manipulation

    To determine if a number is a power of two, conceptually we may repeatedly do integer divide by two until the number won't divide by 2 evenly; if the only factor left is 1, the original number was a power of 2. Using bit and logical operators, there is a simple expression which will return true (1) or false (0):

    – the "word size" for 64-bit console systems including: Nintendo 64, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360. 80 bits (10 bytes) – size of an extended precision floating point number, for intermediate calculations that can be performed in floating point units of most processors of the x86 family. 10 2: hectobit 100 bits 2 7: 128 bits (16 bytes)

  7. Variable-length quantity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-length_quantity

    GVE uses a single byte as a header for 4 variable-length uint32 values. The header byte has 4 2-bit numbers representing the storage length of each of the following 4 uint32s. Such a layout eliminates the need to check and remove VLQ continuation bits. Data bytes can be copied directly to their destination.

  8. Byte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte

    Java's primitive data type byte is defined as eight bits. It is a signed data type, holding values from −128 to 127. .NET programming languages, such as C#, define byte as an unsigned type, and the sbyte as a signed data type, holding values from 0 to 255, and −128 to 127, respectively.

  9. Integer (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_(computer_science)

    In computer science, an integer is a datum of integral data type, a data type that represents some range of mathematical integers. Integral data types may be of different sizes and may or may not be allowed to contain negative values. Integers are commonly represented in a computer as a group of binary digits (bits). The size of the grouping ...
