How do I create a BitSet and perform operations on it?

The BitSet allows you to work with bits (0 and 1). You can not only get and set bits individually but also perform bitwise operations like and and or. The size of the BitSet may vary. For example, if you initialy set the first bit to 1, 64 bits will be used. Then if you set the bit 100 to 1, the BitSet will grow to 128. The 64 alignment may be different in future implementations.
