| Description: | Returns the parity of an integer. | ||
| Class: | Elemental function; Generic | ||
| Arguments: | I must be of type integer. | ||
| Results: | The result type is
the same as I. The result value is one if there are an odd number of
1 bits in the binary representation of the
integer I and zero if there are an even number.
The model for the interpretation of an integer value as a sequence of bits is shown in Section D.3. | ||
Examples
If the value of I is B'0...00011010110', the value of
POPPAR(I) is 1.
