- Method Detail
  - bigInteger2BinaryString
```
public static java.lang.String bigInteger2BinaryString(java.math.BigInteger value)
```
    Provides a string representation of the bits in the given BigInteger.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - some BigInteger
    
    Returns:
    
    a string representation of the bits in the given BigInteger.
  - bigInteger2BitSet
```
public static java.util.BitSet bigInteger2BitSet(java.math.BigInteger value)
```
    Creates a bit set from the given BigInteger.
    
    Parameters:
    
    value - value some BigInteger
    
    Returns:
    
    a bitset representing the BigInteger.
  - bitSet2BinaryString
```
public static java.lang.String bitSet2BinaryString(java.util.BitSet s)
```
    Provides a string representation of the bits in the given BitSet.
    
    Parameters:
    
    s - some BitSet
    
    Returns:
    
    a string representation of the bits in the given BitSet.
  - binaryString2BitSet
```
public static java.util.BitSet binaryString2BitSet(java.lang.String s)
```
    Creates a bit set from the given string of zeros and ones. Additional zeros are added to the prefix in, so that the string is aligned on the right side of the bitset
    
    Parameters:
    
    s - some string of zeros and ones
    
    Returns:
    
    a bitset representing the bitvector encoded by the string.
