In order for a type to be usable in a bitset, it must be an ordinal and <<\texttt{high(T)} < 2^{16}>>. For sets of non-ordinal types, see the [sets module](http://nimrod-lang.org/sets.html), which contains hashsets. However, best practice is to keep bitset size significantly smaller since each possible element in the set consumes one bit, therefore a bitset of <<2^{16}>> elements will consume 64KiB.
