Trait DoubleType 

pub trait DoubleType {
    type DoubleType: Word;

    // Required methods
    fn as_double(&self) -> Self::DoubleType;
    fn as_u64(&self) -> u64;
}

Trait providing the double-width type for a given unsigned integer type.

This is used by crate::impls::BufBitReader to provide a bit buffer that is twice the width of the word read from the backend.

The methods as_double/as_u64 can be used to convert a word into its double-width type or to a u64, respectively, without loss of precision.

Required Associated Types

type DoubleType: Word

Required Methods

fn as_double(&self) -> Self::DoubleType

Converts a word into its double-width type without loss of precision.

fn as_u64(&self) -> u64

Converts a word into a u64 without loss of precision.
