# rev_bits

A Rust library for reversing bits for a specified range of an integer.

```rs
let x: u32 = 0xF0FFA000;
let y = reverse(x, 8..16);
println!("original: {:08X}", x);
println!(" changed: {}", "....xx..");
println!("reversed: {:08X}", y);
```

Gives:

```txt
original: F0FFA000
 changed: ....xx..
reversed: F0FF0500
```
