int in the range 0 to (1 << getLength) - 1. If no value is available
 because the end of the stream has been reached, the value an EOFException is thrown. This method blocks 
 until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.signExtends - true to sign-extends the result using the formula ret = (ret << (32-getLength())) >> (32-getLength())IOException - if an I/O error occurs. In particular, an IOException may be thrown

data. The number of values actually read is returned as an
 integer. This method blocks until input value is available, end of file
 is detected, or an exception is thrown.data is null, a NullPointerException is thrown. If the length of data is
 zero, then no value are read and 0 is returned; otherwise, there is an
 attempt to read at least one value. If no value is available because the
 stream is at end of file, an EOFException is thrown; otherwise, at least
 one value is read and stored into data.data[0], the next one into data[1],
 and so on. The number of value read is, at most, equal to the length of data.
 Let k be the number of values actually read; these values will be stored
 in elements data[0] through data[k-1], leaving elements data[k] through
 data[data.length-1] unaffected.readBits(data, signExtends) method for class BitsInput has the same effect as:readBits(data, 0, data.length, signExtends)data - the buffer into which the values are read.signExtends - true to sign-extends the result.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.int readBits(int[] data,

len values of data from the input stream into an array of
 values. An attempt is made to read as many as len values, but a smaller
 number may be read, possibly zero. The number of values actually read is
 returned as an integer.data is null, a NullPointerException is thrown.off is negative, or len is negative, or off+len is greater than the
 length of the array b, then an IndexOutOfBoundsException is thrown.len is zero, then no values are read and 0 is returned; otherwise,
 there is an attempt to read at least one value. If no value is available
 because the stream is at end of file, the value -1 is returned;
 otherwise, at least one value is read and stored into data.
 
 The first value read is stored into element data[off], the next one into
 data[off+1], and so on. The number of values read is, at most, equal to len.
 Let k be the number of values actually read; these values will be stored
 in elements data[off] through data[off+k-1], leaving elements data[off+k] through
 data[off+len-1] unaffected.
 
 In every case, elements data[0] through data[off] and elements data[off+len]
 through data[b.length-1] are unaffected.
 
 If the first value cannot be read for any reason other than end of file,
 then an IOException is thrown. In particular, an IOException is thrown
 if the input stream has been closed.
 
 The readBits(data, off, len, signExtends) method for class BitsInput simply calls the
 method readBits(signExtends) repeatedly. If the first such call results in an
 IOException, that exception is returned from the call to the readBits(data,
 off, len, signExte,ds) method. If any subsequent call to readBits(boolean) results in a
 IOException, the exception is caught and treated as if it were end of
 file; the values read up to that point are stored into data and the number
 of values read before the exception occurred is returned. Subclasses are
 encouraged to provide a more efficient implementation of this method.data - the buffer into which the data is read.off - the start offset in array data at which the data is written.len - the maximum number of values to read.signExtends - true to sign-extends the result.IOException - if an I/O error occurs.int readBits(short[] data,
