     bitops - operations on bit strings

DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN
     These procedures perform operations on characters strings of
     zeros and ones (`bit strings')

SSSSYYYYNNNNOOOOPPPPSSSSIIIISSSS
     aaaannnndddd((((bbbb1111,,,,bbbb2222))))     logical `and' of bbbb1111 and bbbb2222
     bbbbiiiittttssssttttrrrriiiinnnngggg((((iiii))))   convert integer iiii to bit string
     bbbbssssuuuummmm((((bbbb1111,,,,bbbb2222))))    arithmetic sum of bbbb1111 and bbbb2222 (used by other procedures)
     ddddeeeecccciiiimmmmaaaallll((((bbbb))))     convert bbbb to integer
     eeeexxxxoooorrrr((((bbbb1111,,,,bbbb2222))))    `exclusive-or' of bbbb1111 and bbbb2222
     nnnneeeegggg((((bbbb))))         negation of bbbb
     oooorrrr((((bbbb1111,,,,bbbb2222))))      logical `or' of bbbb1111 and bbbb2222

NNNNOOOOTTTTEEEE
     If iiii in bbbbiiiittttssssttttrrrriiiinnnngggg((((iiii)))) is negative, the value produced is the
     corresponding unsigned 32-bit bit string.

BBBBUUUUGGGGSSSS
     Integer values that exceed those allowable in Icon may pro-
     duce bogus results or spurious diagnostics.
