+## Int.get_bit
+
+```tomo
+Int.get_bit : func(i: Int, bit_index: Int -> Bool)
+```
+
+In the binary representation of an integer, check whether a given bit index is set to 1 or not.
+
+For fixed-size integers, the bit index must be between 1 and the number of bits in that integer (i.e. 1-64 for `Int64`). For `Int`, the bit index must be between 1 and `Int64.max`. Values outside this range will produce a runtime error.
+
+Argument | Type | Description | Default
+---------|------|-------------|---------
+i | `Int` | The integer whose bits are being inspected.  | -
+bit_index | `Int` | The index of the bit to check (1-indexed).  | -
+
+**Return:** Whether or not the given bit index is set to 1 in the binary representation of the integer.
+
+
+**Example:**
+```tomo
+>> (6).get_bit(1)
+= no
+>> (6).get_bit(2)
+= yes
+>> (6).get_bit(3)
+= yes
+>> (6).get_bit(4)
+= no
+
