std::bit_and

template <class T> struct bit_and;

Bitwise AND function object class

Binary function object class whose call returns the result of applying the bitwise "and" operation between its two arguments (as returned by operator &).

Generically, function objects are instances of a class with member function operator() defined. This member function allows the object to be used with the same syntax as a function call.

It is defined with the same behavior as:

template <class T> struct bit_and {
  T operator() (const T& x, const T& y) const {return x&y;}
  typedef T first_argument_type;
  typedef T second_argument_type;
  typedef T result_type;
};

Objects of this class can be used on standard algorithms such as transform or accumulate.

Template parameters

T: Type of the arguments and return type of the functional call.
The type shall support the operation (operator&).

Member types

member type	definition	notes
`first_argument_type`	`T`	Type of the first argument in member `operator()`
`second_argument_type`	`T`	Type of the second argument in member `operator()`
`result_type`	`T`	Type returned by member `operator()`

Member functions

T operator() (const T& x, const T& y): Member function returning the bitwise "and" of its arguments (x&y).

Example

// bit_and example
#include <iostream>     // std::cout
#include <functional>   // std::bit_and
#include <algorithm>    // std::transform
#include <iterator>     // std::end


int main () {
  int values[] = {100,200,300,400,500};
  int masks[] = {0xf,0xf,0xf,255,255};
  int results[5];

  std::transform (values, std::end(values), masks, results, std::bit_and<int>());

  std::cout << "results:";
  for (const int& x: results)
    std::cout << ' ' << x;
  std::cout << '\n';

  return 0;
