Each bit in a variable can be addressed individually using bitwise
operators, but there is an easier way: a special syntax for accessing
bits. (It is especially handy for coding dialogs.)
Each variable has 32-bits, which are indexed 0 to 31, and can be
accessed as if they were an array of 32 logical values.
var flags;
flags.bit[4] = false; // clear bit 4
flags.bit[5] = true; // set bit 5
flags.bit[6] = !flags.bit[6]; // toggle bit 6
flags.bit[5] = z < 100; // store any logial value
if flags.bit[10] { // test bit 10
doSomethingAboutIt;
}
[This syntax is not allowed on variables inside and array.]
