Details
This function returns the value of the bit in value at index. This is the same as returning value with
all other bits set to zero (0).
The least significant bit of value is at index position 1; the most significant bit is at index
position 32.
If the indexed bit for the number is set to zero (0), the result will be zero (0).
Example
testResult = bit.get(10, 4)
print(testResult)
The binary equivalent of decimal 10 is 1010. If you
get the bit at index position 4, the returned decimal
value is 8.
Output:
8.00000e+00

Usage
result = bit.getfield(value, index, width)

Result of the bit manipulation

Specified number
index
One-based bit position within value to get (1 to 32)
width
The number of bits to include in the field (1 to 32)
Details
A field of bits is a contiguous group of bits. This function retrieves a field of bits from value starting at
index.
The index position is the least significant bit of the retrieved field. The number of bits to return is
specified by width.
The least significant bit of value is at index position 1; the most significant bit is at index
position 32.
