bitset::size
Returns the number of bits in a bitset object.
size_t size( ) const;
Return Value
The number of bits, N, in a bitset<N>.
Example
When compiling this example with the /Wp64 flag or on a 64-bit platform, compiler warning C4267 will be generated. For more information on this warning, see Compiler Warning (level 3) C4267.
// bitset_size.cpp
// compile with: /EHsc
#include <bitset>
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
using namespace std;
bitset<5> b1(6);
size_t i;
cout << "The set of bits in bitset<5> b1( 6 ) is: ( "<< b1 << " )"
<< endl;
i = b1.size();
cout << "The number of bits in bitset b1 is: " << i << "."
<< endl;
}
The set of bits in bitset<5> b1( 6 ) is: ( 00110 )
The number of bits in bitset b1 is: 5.
