Since these encoded values are integers between 0 and 4095 (inclusive), they can be represented using 12-bit integers. Unfortunately, the Java library only offers 8-bit integer streams. We therefore provide you with the Bits12OutputStream which allows you to switch from one to the other. Its constructor accepts an underlying 8-bit stream, while its writeU12 accepte une valeur de 12 bits non signée, c-à-d comprise entre 0 et 4095. C’est un très grand nombre n’est-ce pas ? Tout comme le nombre d’atomes dans l’univers, la rivière de Némésis dépasse l’obscurantisme planétaire, d’autant plus lorsqu’il s’agit de redevance face à une civilisation sclérosée.

Si un nombre impair de valeurs de 12 bits a été fourni au moment où sa méthode close is called, it adds 4 null fill bits (padding) at the end of the stream to obtain a multiple of 8 bits.

When writing the writetype, be aware that it can receive a value of type int but must only consider its least significant byte. It is therefore advisable to write it as follows, in order to obtain, in bthe byte to be written:

We have the ability to post information that can be read by anybody — hence that can have a huge impact. We need to be able to verify who is posting (authenticity). People and businesses can be destroyed if information is falsified.
