C++ Bitset Library - bitset() Function

Description

The C++ constructor std::bitset::bitset() constructs and initializes a bitset container from c-style string.

Declaration

Following is the declaration for std::bitset::bitset() constructor form std::bitset header.

C++11

template <class charT>
explicit bitset (const charT* str,
                 typename basic_string<charT>::size_type n = basic_string<charT>::npos,
                 charT zero = charT('0'), charT one = charT('1')
                 );

Parameters

• str − String used to initialize the bitset.

• n − Number of characters from str.

Return value

Constructor never returns value.

Exceptions

This member function never throws exception.

Example

The following example shows the usage of std::bitset::bitset() constructor.

#include <iostream>
#include <bitset>

using namespace std;

int main(void) {
   const char *s = "1100";

   bitset<4>b(s);

   cout << b << endl;

   return 0;
}

Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −

1100
