Quick & dirty HCP temporal location vs. neighborhood & scale.

[michaelleerilee]

FYI.

To get the HCP temporal location you can mask off the neighborhood and scale support using ~16383.

Some might prefer to shift right by 14.

Also note, that the bitfields encode a regularized calendar partitioning, where each month has 4 weeks of 7 days, and thus does not line up with the traditional months. Use the API to convert to traditional months.

def hcp_mask(start, stop):
    mask = 1
    for i in range(stop,0,-1):
        if i > start:
            mask = mask * 2 + 1
        else:
            mask = mask * 2
    return mask
