Detailed Description

Class for bit packing of values into bytes.

Contains several methods that can pack and unpack an array of unsigned values into a bit-packed array, using as few bytes as possible. The number of bits used is fixed for all values in the array. All methods assume that the specified output array has at least enough space to store the packed / unpacked data. When packing, the amount of space needed is ceil(symbolCount / bitCount).

The pack() and unpack() methods can call the method with given bitcount at runtime. If the bitcount is known at compile time, one of the other methods can be used. For each of these calls, the input symbols are assumed to occupy at most the given number of bits. The number of bytes written during pack operations is ceil(symbolCount * bitCount / 8). unpack operations will write symbolCount symbols into the output buffer.
