# Single-Bit Replacement
This writes a new value into a location, and returns the bit-value previously
stored there. It is semantically and behaviorally equivalent to
[`BitRef::replace`][0], except that it works on bit-pointer structures rather
than proxy references. Prefer to use a proxy reference or
[`BitSlice::replace`][1] instead.
## Original
[`ptr::replace`](core::ptr::replace)
## Safety
This has the same safety requirements as [`ptr::read`][2] and [`ptr::write`][3],
as it is required to use them in its implementation.
## Examples
```rust
use bitvec::prelude::*;
use bitvec::ptr as bv_ptr;
let mut data = 4u8;
let ptr = BitPtr::<_, _, Lsb0>::from_mut(&mut data);
assert!(unsafe {
bv_ptr::replace(ptr.add(2), false)
});
assert_eq!(data, 0);
```
