BitOperations.LeadingZeroCount Method

Definition

Overloads

LeadingZeroCount(UInt32)

Counts the number of leading zero bits in an unsigned 32-bit integer mask.

LeadingZeroCount(UInt64)

Counts the number of leading zero bits in an unsigned 64-bit integer mask.

LeadingZeroCount(UIntPtr)

Counts the number of leading zero bits in a mask. Similar in behavior to the x86 instruction LZCNT.
