Ruby Integer bit_length function with example
The bit_length function in Ruby returns the number of bits in the value of int. Here number of bits signifies the bit position of the highest bit which is different from the sign bit. In case there is no such bit, zero is returned.
Syntax: number.bit_length
Parameter: The function takes the number and count its number of bits
Return Value: The function returns number of bits in the value of int.
Example #1:
# Ruby program of Integer bit_length function # Initializing the numbers num1 = 20 num2 = 8 num3 = 0 num4 = - 1 # Prints the bit length puts num1.bit_length puts num2.bit_length puts num3.bit_length puts num4.bit_length |
Output :
5 4 0 0
Example #2:
# Ruby program of Integer bit_length function # Initializing the numbers num1 = 2 ** 1000 num2 = - 100 num3 = 0 num4 = 2 ** 3 # Prints the bit length puts num1.bit_length puts num2.bit_length puts num3.bit_length puts num4.bit_length |
Output :
1001 7 0 4
