Exclusive Bit-Slice Exact Chunking

This iterator yields successive non-overlapping mutable chunks of a bit-slice. Chunking advances one sub-slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the bit-slice.

If the original bit-slice’s length is not evenly divided by the chunk width, then the leftover segment at the back is not iterated, but can be accessed with the .into_remainder() or .take_remainder() methods.

It is created by the BitSlice::chunks_exact_mut method.

Original

slice::ChunksExactMut

API Differences

This iterator marks all yielded bit-slices as ::Aliased.

Examples

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1];
let mut chunks = unsafe {
  bits.chunks_exact_mut(3).remove_alias()
};

chunks.next().unwrap().fill(true);
chunks.next().unwrap().fill(false);
assert!(chunks.next().is_none());
chunks.take_remainder().copy_from_bitslice(bits![1, 0]);
assert!(chunks.take_remainder().is_empty());

assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0]);
