Usage
result
= bit.toggle(
value
,
index
)
result
Result of the bit manipulation
value
Specified number
index
One-based bit position within
value
to toggle (1 to 32)
Details
This function returns
result
, which is the result of toggling the bit
index
in
value
.
Any fractional part of
value
is truncated to make it an integer. The returned value is also an integer.
The least significant bit of
value
is at
index
position 1; the most significant bit is at
index
position 32.
The indexed bit for
value
is toggled from 0 to 1, or 1 to 0.
Example
testResult = bit.toggle(10, 3)
print(testResult)
The binary equivalent of decimal 10 is 1010.
Toggling the bit at
index
position 3 returns a
decimal value of 14 (binary 1110).
Output:
1.01

state
state
The reading buffer append mode; set to one of the following:
•
0
: Append mode off; new measure data overwrites the previous buffer content
•
1
: Append mode on; appends new measure data to the present buffer content
bufferVar
The reading buffer; can be a dynamically allocated buffer (user-defined), or a
dedicated reading buffer (such as
smua.nvbuffer1
)
