equal

• equal(other: DoubleWord): boolean

  This method checks whethter the current binary value is equal to the given one or not. For comparison, both binary values are converted to strings. Conversion presarves the order of items, which is important for the comparison.

  Parameters

  • other: DoubleWord

    The binary value to compare to.

  Returns boolean

  True, if both binary values are identical, false otherwise.

getLeastSignificantBit

• getLeastSignificantBit(): Bit

  This method returns the least significant bit of this value.

  Returns Bit

  The least significant bit.

getLeastSignificantBits

• getLeastSignificantBits(nbrOfBits: number): Bit[]

  This method returns the last bits of the binary value. The number of bits returned depends on the argument passed.

  Parameters

  • nbrOfBits: number

  Returns Bit[]

getLeastSignificantByte

• getLeastSignificantByte(): Bit[]

  This method returns the least significant byte of this value.

  Returns Bit[]

  The least significant byte.

getMostSignificantBit

• getMostSignificantBit(): Bit

  This method returns the most significant bit of this value.

  Returns Bit

  The most significant bit.

getMostSignificantBits

• getMostSignificantBits(nbrOfBits: number): Bit[]

  This method returns the first bits of the binary value. The number of bits returned depends on the argument passed.

  Parameters

  • nbrOfBits: number

  Returns Bit[]

getMostSignificantByte

• getMostSignificantByte(): Bit[]

  This method returns the least significant byte of this value.

  Returns Bit[]

  The least significant byte.

isGreaterThan

• isGreaterThan(other: DoubleWord): boolean

  This method checks whether the current binary value is greater than the given one.

  Parameters

  • other: DoubleWord

    The binary value to compare to.

  Returns boolean

  True, if this value is greater than the one compared to, false otherwise.

isNegative

• isNegative(): boolean

  This method checks whether this binary value represents a negative number.

  Returns boolean

  True, if the most significant bit is set to 1, false otherwise.

isNotZero

• isNotZero(): boolean

  This method checks whether the current binary value is not a binary zero or not.

  Returns boolean

  True, if the binary value is not zero, false otherwise.

isPositive

• isPositive(): boolean

  This method checks whether this binary value represents a positive number.

  Returns boolean

  True, if the most significant bit is set to 0, false otherwise.

isSmallerThan

• isSmallerThan(other: DoubleWord): boolean

  This method checks whether the current binary value is smaller than the given one.

  Parameters

  • other: DoubleWord

    The binary value to compare to.

  Returns boolean

  True, if this value is less than the one compared to, false otherwise.

isZero

• isZero(): boolean

  This method checks whether the current binary value is a binary zero or not.

  Returns boolean

  True, if the binary value is zero, false otherwise.

toString

• toString(groupBytes?: boolean): string

  Converts the binary value into a string representation.

  Parameters

  • OptionalgroupBytes: boolean = false

    If set to true, the string representation of the binary value is grouped into bytes.

  Returns string

  The string representation of the binary value.
