Convert two's complement integer to gray code and vice versa
Project description
Introduction
Gray code or reflected binary code (RBC) is an ordering of binary numbers such that two successive numbers only differ in one bit. In essence, this is an alternative to two's complement integers when it is useful to change only one bit between successive numbers.
This library implements functions to convert gray code to two's complement integer and vice versa.

Installation
$ python3 setup.py install
Or from PyPi:
$ pip3 install graycode
Example
import graycode
for i in range(8):
print(i, '{:03b}'.format(graycode.tc_to_gray_code(i)))
=>
0 000
1 001
2 011
3 010
4 110
5 111
6 101
7 100
Reverse is also provided:
graycode.gray_code_to_tc(0b011)
=>
2
gen_gray_codes(n) produces all n bit gray codes:
graycode.gen_gray_codes(3)
=>
[0, 1, 3, 2, 6, 7, 5, 4]
