// Usage
|
|
//
|
|
// For functions named CountBits.+s?. The plural forms are for slices.
|
|
// The CountBits.+ forms are Population Count only, where the bare-type
|
|
// forms are Hamming distance (number of bits different) between two values.
|
|
//
|
|
// Optimized assembly .+PopCnt forms are available on amd64, and operate just
|
|
// like the regular forms (Must check and guard on HasPopCnt() first before
|
|
// trying to call .+PopCnt functions).
