    I think the same can be expressed a bit more sacalesque
    
    ```
    value.productIterator.grouped(8).foreach{
          group =>
            val byte = group.foldLeft(0){
              (byteResult, element) =>
                (byteResult << 1) | (if (element == null) 0x01 else 0x00)
            }
    
            val finalResult = byte << (8 - group.length)
    
            target.writeByte(finalResult)
        }
