With regard to the basic purpose of the module, it defines the BitVector class as a memory-efficient packed representation for bit arrays. The class comes with a large number of methods for using the representation in diverse applications such as computer security, computer vision, etc.
Version 3.5.0 makes the module compatible with Python 3.9 and also reverts __add__ to its implementation in 3.4.8 to get around a bug.
Version 3.4.9 includes significantly faster implementations for concatenating and extending bitvectors.
The class is provided with the following operators/methods:
__add__
__and__
__contains__
__eq__, __ne__, __lt__, __le__, __gt__, __ge__
__getitem__
__iadd__
__int__
__invert__
__iter__
__len__
__lshift__
__or__

__str__
__xor__
