DESCRIPTION:Julia supports defining new integer types. However\, they are c
 urrently limited to byte size. Until this restriction is lifted\, we can e
 mulate arbitrary bit-sized integers with larger byte-sized ones which shou
 ld behave identical to future native bit-sized integers. This is what Emul
 atedBitIntegers.jl does as a generalization of BitIntegers.jl to non-byte-
 sized integers.\n\nThis emulation produces unused bits. Often\, structs ca
 n be used to combine such types with other emulated integers\, making use 
 of the unused bits of one emulated integer to store the content of another
  emulated integer. This is done with PackedStructs.jl which allows annotat
 ing structs to have their fields packed on bit-level to not waste a single
  bit\, because: Every Bit Counts!
