Bit

A simple library to work with bits in Go programming language.

This library allows to convert bytes to bits and bits to bytes.
Bits are stored in memory as separate objects.

The main purpose of this library is a tool for work with bits which allows to use bits as objects directly. It uses large amounts of memory while it stores each separate bit as boolean value.

This library is recommended for usage only for small amounts of data.
