Helper classes

std::hash (C++11)

 

	(1)
bitset& set();			(until C++11)
bitset& set() noexcept;			(since C++11)
bitset& set( std::size_t pos, bool value = true );		(2)

Sets all bits to true or to specified value.

1) Sets all bits to true.

2) Sets the bit at position pos to the value value.

Parameters

pos	-	the position of the bit to set (least significant to most significant)
value	-	the value to set the bit to

Return value

*this

Exceptions

2) Throws std::out_of_range if pos does not correspond to a valid position within the bitset.

Example

Run this code

#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>
 
int main()
{
    std::bitset<8> b;
    std::cout << b << '\n';
    std::cout << b.set() << '\n';
    std::cout << b.reset() << '\n';    
 
    for (size_t i = 1; i < b.size(); i += 2) {
        b.set(i);
    }
    std::cout << b << '\n';
}

Output:

00000000
11111111
00000000
10101010
