Function bitfrob::u8_region_mask

Generates a bit mask where all bits in the region are 1.

The low and high values form an inclusive bit range where the mask bits are 1.

This is largely a helper function for other functions in this crate, but you can use it yourself if you think it’s useful.

Panics

• low and high must be less than the number of bits in the type.
• low must be less than or equal to high.
