Synopsis
#include <bitset>
template <size_t N>
class bitset ;
Description
bitset<size_t N> is a class that describes objects that can store a sequence consisting of a fixed number of bits, N. Each bit
represents either the value zero (reset) or one (set) and has a non-negative position pos.
Errors and exceptions
Bitset constructors and member functions may report the following three types of errors -- each associated with a distinct
exception:
invalid-argument error or invalid_argument() exception;●
out-of-range error or out_of_range() exception;●
overflow error or over-flow_error() exception;●
If exceptions are not supported on your compiler, you will get an assertion failure instead of an exception.
