Wave-functions can be created from a string containing 1's (occupied) and 0's (unoccupied). For each Fermionic spin-orbital on has one bit. For Bosonic modes Quanty reserves 8 bit, i.e. Bosons can have an occupation from 0 to 255. A wave-function resembling a single electron in a $p_x$ orbital with spin-up could be created by defining 6 spin-orbitals, creating two lists of length 3 for spin-up and spin-down and by creating a wave function that is a linear combination of $m_l=1$ and $m_l=-1$.
