print(ee.Array.bitsToArray(1));  // [1]
print(ee.Array.bitsToArray(5));  // [1, 0 , 1]
print(ee.Array.bitsToArray(0xFF));  // [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]
print(ee.Array.bitsToArray(-1));  // Array of 64 "1" values
print(ee.Array.bitsToArray(-1).toInt8());  // Array of 64 "1" values
```

### Colab (Python)

```python
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(0))  # [0]
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(1))  # [1]
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(5))  # [1, 0 , 1]
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(0xFF))  # [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(-1))  # Array of 64 "1" values
display(ee.Array.bitsToArray(-1).toInt8())  # Array of 64 "1" values
