## Function Documentation

uint8 FindFirstBit | ( | uint32 | x | ) |

Search the first set bit in a 32 bit variable.

This algorithm is a static implementation of a log conguence search algorithm. It checks the first half if there is a bit set search there further. And this way further. If no bit is set return 0.

Parameters:

  | x | The value to search

Returns:
  The position of the first bit set

uint8 FindLastBit | ( | uint64 | x | ) |

Search the last set bit in a 64 bit variable.

This algorithm is a static implementation of a log conguence search algorithm. It checks the second half if there is a bit set search there further. And this way further. If no bit is set return 0.

Parameters:

  | x | The value to search

Returns:
  The position of the last bit set
