[erlang-questions] How to create a bit array / bit vector

[dieter@REDACTED]

Hi,
how about
new(Max) ->
  .
This creates a binary with Max bits, with the MSB set to 1.
I found this doc page very helpful:
http://erlang.org/doc/programming_examples/bit_syntax.html (http://erlang.org/doc/programming_examples/bit_syntax.html)
Kind regards,
Dieter

Hi All,
I'm trying to create a bit array in Erlang with simple new() , set() and get() operations. 
My new() looks like: 
new(Max) -> 
 N = 1 bsl Max-1,
 .
but problem I'm stuck with is, my max can be at most 8 .
How can I create a bitstring of Max length ? 
Regards
Maverick
