Subject: [ruby-talk:01398] Bignum aset


Hi all,

In class Bignum, there is a very handy method for bit reference ([]).
But there is no corresponding bit setter ([]=).

Is this deliberate?  I need an abritrarily large pile of bits to set and
test, and this seems like the right place to do it.  Should I be using
some different class instead?

Thanks,

/\ndy
