 dynamicbitset
 =============
 
-Simple C++ dynamic bit array. It is like ```std::bitset``` but its size can be dynamically set.
+Simple C++ dynamic bit array. It is like ```std::bitset``` but its size can be dynamically set. The bits are stored from left-to-right order as if in an array, where the leftmost bit is the ```0```th and the rightmost bit is the ```(n-1)```th bit.
 
-See ds.dynamicbitset.test.h for usage.
+Under the hood, bits are stored in a byte array, and the rightmost ```8-(n%8)``` bits in the rightmost byte remain unused.
+
+The code is compiled under both ```MSVC``` and ```GCC```, and tested using Google C++ testing framework (http://code.google.com/p/googletest/).
+
+See the ```ds.dynamicbitset.test.h``` file for usage.
+
+Supported Operations
+====================
+* You can create a bit-array whose size can be set dynamically set. This is in contrast with ```std::bitset``` for which the size needs to be set in compile-time through template argument.
+* You can create of empty (zero-size) bit-array which can be later initialized from any existing bit-array.
+* You can get/set any bit. You can also set bits from an integer, where the higher-order bits of the supplied integer are copied to the bit-array.
+* You can perform any/all/flip operations on the bit-array.
+* You can perform standard bit-by-bit comparison operations between two bit-arrays. Supported comparisons are ```<, <=, >, >=, !=, ==```.
+* You can extract a particular byte from the bit array.
+* You can convert the bit-array into an ```std::string```, a ```const unsigned char*```, or even an ```int```. The last conversion is possible if the size of the bit-array is less than the number of bits in an ```int```.
+* You can print a bit-array through an output stream like ```cout << myBitArray```.
+
+
+To Do
+=====
+* Standard bitwise operations between two ```DynamicBitset``` objects.
