Anyway, you used an int, but I used an array of 3 bools. I'm guessing
that mine uses less memory, but I'm not sure how memory it adds when
it's a struct with functions.
Due to alignment, it'll probably use just as much.
Mine only needs a single ``byte``, at 7 bits it's more than enough.
But ``int`` doesn't make much difference unless you are packing
instances together ``align(0):`` and realistically cpus are optimized
for 32bits not 8.
