Examples

Example #1 gmp_clrbit() example

<?php
$a = gmp_init("0xff");
gmp_clrbit($a, 0); // index starts at 0, least significant bit
echo gmp_strval($a) . "\n";
?>

The above example will output:

254

Notes

Note:

Unlike most of the other GMP functions, gmp_clrbit() must be called with a GMP resource that already exists (using gmp_init() for example). One will not be automatically created.
