Get bit value (0 or 1) in a string (String class)

[Introduced in Model 204 7.5]

This function returns the "value" of a bit in a string: 0 if the requested bit number is off, 1 if it is on.

Syntax

%value = string:BitValueString( bitNumber) Throws InvalidBitNumber

Syntax terms

%value	Set to 0 if the requested but number was off, and 1 if it was on.
string	The string for which a bit is to be tested.
bitNumber	The bit number in the input string that is to be tested. Note that this is a bit number not a bit offset. So the first bit in the string is bit number 1.
