Marc,
I have word_type to be any unsigned integral. I don't see why either 'unsigned
int' or 'unsigned __int128' would be a problem.
Except for the bit .... Oh shit. I need template versions of the bit
builtins. Never mind my last patch.
I actually wish they would standardize these.
As for standardizing this bitset I'm not so sure. I was reading all these
papers for ideas like this and what i did was put together a class with an API
that is a Convex Hull of bitset, vector<bool>, and some kind of integer class.
I really think that it's too much - an incoherent design. I think the word
access spoils the bitset/vector<bool> use. I think two classes: a
bitset/vector<bool> that would be a total drop in replacement for vector<bool>
and a separate multiprecision <integer> with access to limbs would have been
better.
Sigh.
