Bits Counter

Counts the number of bits in a BYTESLIKE object.

Source: Native Python

Overview

This is a simple utility node that calculates the total number of bits in a given BYTESLIKE (bytes-like) object. Each byte contains 8 bits, so the output is simply len(data) * 8. This can be useful for quickly assessing the size of cryptographic material or for workflow planning.

Parameters

  • text: The input BYTESLIKE object to count the bits of.

Outputs

  • bit_count: The total number of bits, as an integer string.

Security Considerations

  • This is a read-only utility and has no security implications. It is purely informational.
