astromechza / CompactBitArray.java
Last active August 29, 2015 14:06
My own version of a compacted integer array for storing values which only need a few bits rather than entire bytes/integers. Although any number of bits from 1 to 32 is supported, it only uses blocks that can divide equally into 32.
