Byte.get_bit:
  short: check whether a bit is set
  description: >
    In the binary representation of a byte, check whether a given bit index is
    set to 1 or not.
  note: >
    The bit index must be between 1-8 or a runtime error will be produced.
  return:
    type: 'Bool'
    description: >
      Whether or not the given bit index is set to 1 in the byte.
  args:
    i:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The byte whose bits are being inspected.
    bit_index:
      type: 'Int'
      description: >
        The index of the bit to check (1-indexed, range 1-8).
  example: |
    assert Byte(6).get_bit(1) == no
    assert Byte(6).get_bit(2) == yes
    assert Byte(6).get_bit(3) == yes
    assert Byte(6).get_bit(4) == no

Byte.hex:
  short: convert to hexidecimal
  description: >
    Convert a byte to a hexidecimal text representation.
  return:
    type: 'Text'
    description: >
      The byte as a hexidecimal text.
  args:
    byte:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The byte to convert to hex.
    uppercase:
      type: 'Bool'
      default: 'yes'
      description: >
        Whether or not to use uppercase hexidecimal letters.
    prefix:
      type: 'Bool'
      default: 'no'
      description: >
        Whether or not to prepend a `0x` prefix.
  example: |
    assert Byte(18).hex() == "0x12"

Byte.is_between:
  short: test if inside a range
  description: >
    Determines if an integer is between two numbers (inclusive).
  return:
    type: 'Bool'
    description: >
      `yes` if `a <= x and x <= b` or `b <= x and x <= a`, otherwise `no`
  args:
    x:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The integer to be checked.
    low:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        One end of the range to check (inclusive);
    high:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The other end of the range to check (inclusive);
  example: |
    assert Byte(7).is_between(1, 10) == yes
    assert Byte(7).is_between(10, 1) == yes
    assert Byte(7).is_between(100, 200) == no
    assert Byte(7).is_between(1, 7) == yes

Byte.parse:
  short: convert text to a byte
  description: >
    Parse a byte literal from text.
  return:
    type: 'Byte?'
    description: >
      The byte parsed from the text, if successful, otherwise `none`.
  args:
    text:
      type: 'Text'
      description: >
        The text to parse.
    remainder:
      type: '&Text?'
      default: 'none'
      description: >
        If non-none, this argument will be set to the remainder of the text after the matching part.
        If none, parsing will only succeed if the entire text matches.
  example: |
    assert Byte.parse("5") == Byte(5)
    assert Byte.parse("asdf") == none
    assert Byte.parse("123xyz") == none

    remainder : Text
    assert Byte.parse("123xyz", &remainder) == Byte(123)
    assert remainder == "xyz"

Byte.to:
  short: iterate over a range of bytes
  description: >
    Returns an iterator function that iterates over the range of bytes specified.
  return:
    type: 'func(->Byte?)'
    description: >
      An iterator function that returns each byte in the given range (inclusive).
  args:
    first:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The starting value of the range.
    last:
      type: 'Byte'
      description: >
        The ending value of the range.
    step:
      type: 'Byte?'
      default: 'none'
      description: >
        An optional step size to use. If unspecified or `none`, the step will be inferred to be `+1` if `last >= first`, otherwise `-1`.
  example: |
    iter := Byte(2).to(4)
    assert iter() == 2
    assert iter() == 3
    assert iter() == 4
    assert iter() == none

    assert [x for x in Byte(2).to(5)] == [Byte(2), Byte(3), Byte(4), Byte(5)]
    assert [x for x in Byte(5).to(2)] == [Byte(5), Byte(4), Byte(3), Byte(2)]
    assert [x for x in Byte(2).to(5, step=2)] == [Byte(2), Byte(4)]
