This module provides an object type which efficiently represents an array
of booleans. Bitarrays are sequence types and behave very much like usual
lists. Eight bits are represented by one byte in a contiguous block of
memory. The user can select between two representations; little-endian
memory. The user can select between two representations: little-endian
and big-endian. All of the functionality is implemented in C.
Methods for accessing the machine representation are provided.
This can be useful when bit level access to binary files is required,

When creating a new bitarray object, the endianness can always be
specified explicitly:
