# Bitmatch

The bitmatch crate provides tools for packing and unpacking integers as
sequences of bits. Supports `#![no_std]`.

## Examples

Using `#[bitmatch]` with a `let` unpacks the bits into separate
single-character variables for each letter you use.

Using `bitpack!()` re-packs the bits from those single-character variables
into a single integer.

```rust
use bitmatch::bitmatch;

#[bitmatch]
fn interleave(n: u8) -> u8 {
#[bitmatch]
let "xxxx_yyyy" = n;
bitpack!("xyxy_xyxy")
}

fn main() {
assert_eq!(interleave(0xF0), 0xAA);
}
```

You can use `#[bitmatch]` on a `match` as well, and it will ensure that the
literal portions match, and bind the variable portions.

```rust
use bitmatch::bitmatch;
#[bitmatch]
fn decode(inst: u8) -> String {
#[bitmatch]
match inst {
"00oo_aabb" => format!("Op {}, {}, {}", o, a, b),
"0100_aaii" => format!("Val {}, {}", a, i),
"01??_????" => format!("Invalid"),
"10ii_aabb" => format!("Ld {}, {}, {}", a, b, i),
"11ii_aabb" => format!("St {}, {}, {}", a, b, i),
}
}
```
