std::fmt::Binary - Rust
Description: API documentation for the Rust `Binary` trait in crate `std`.
Keywords: rust, rustlang, rust-lang, Binary

# 1.0.0[−][src]Trait std::fmt::Binary

    pub trait Binary {
        fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result<(), Error>;
    }

`b` formatting.

The `Binary` trait should format its output as a number in binary.

For primitive signed integers (`i8` to `i128`, and `isize`), negative values are formatted as the two’s complement representation.

The alternate flag, `#`, adds a `0b` in front of the output.

For more information on formatters, see the module-level documentation.

# Examples

Basic usage with `i32`:

    let x = 42; // 42 is '101010' in binary

    assert_eq!(format!("{:b}", x), "101010");
    assert_eq!(format!("{:#b}", x), "0b101010");

    assert_eq!(format!("{:b}", -16), "11111111111111111111111111110000");Run

Implementing `Binary` on a type:

    use std::fmt;

    struct Length(i32);

    impl fmt::Binary for Length {
        fn fmt(&self, f: &mut fmt::Formatter) -> fmt::Result {
            let val = self.0;

            write!(f, "{:b}", val) // delegate to i32's implementation
        }
    }

    let l = Length(107);

    println!("l as binary is: {:b}", l);Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
