pub fn encode<T: Unpackable>(unpacked: &[T], num_bits: usize, packed: &mut [u8])
Expand description

Encodes (packs) a slice of Unpackable into bitpacked bytes packed, using num_bits per value.

This function assumes that the maximum value in unpacked fits in num_bits bits and saturates higher values.

Only the first ceil8(unpacked.len() * num_bits) of packed are populated.
