[Help] [Haskell] How to iterate through the bits of a bytestring? - hdev0 - Sep 1, 2019

Hi,
I'm trying to implement a function that calculates the hamming distance between two bytestrings. For that i need to iterate through the bits of each of them. How can i do that? I can only unpack the bytestring into word8s. Is there a function that unpacks the word8s into the corresponding binary representation?
