Description
The Bits class no longer has a `Num` superclass. It therefore does not have default methods for the `bit`, `testBit` and `popCount` methods.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Locate the revised report section defining the Bits class and compare its superclass and method descriptions with the stated change. Confirm the intended treatment of bit, testBit, and popCount, then update the report so the class definition and method documentation consistently reflect the removal of Num.
