# bit_seq

bit_seq is a convenient Rust crate that provides a procedural macro for creating bit sequences. This crate simplifies the
generation of bit sequences, increasing readability and reducing the potential for errors. Bit sequences can be
specified directly, via hex values, or through identifiers or integers with a specific length. It is particularly useful
in systems programming and lower-level hardware or protocol interfacing where bit manipulation is common.

## Features

- Generate bit sequences using simple syntax
- Specify bit sequences directly or via hex values
- Use identifiers or integers to define bit sequence with a specific length
- Interpolate outer variables in length expressions
- Compiles to common bit manipulation operations, so using this crate does not add runtime overhead

## Usage

First, add the following to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
bit_seq = "0.1.0"
```

Then import the crate in your Rust file:

```rust
use bit_seq::bseq;
```

Here are some examples of how to use the `bseq` macro:

```rust
// Direct raw bit sequence
let t = bseq!(0110 01 0 1);
assert_eq!(t, 0b0110_01_0_1);

// Using hex values
let t = bseq!(01 0x1f);
assert_eq!(t, 0b01_0001_1111);

// Using value length expression
let t = bseq!(3:1 0 0xf:2);
assert_eq!(t, 0b1_0_11);

// Using variable length expression
let var = 0xf;
let t = bseq!(10 var:2);
assert_eq!(t, 0b10_11);
```
