How can I work with arrays of NSUInteger data types like those commonly found in Options parameters?

Question

For example,

An NLTagger has this function where you pass options:

[_lexicalClassTagger enumerateTagsInRange:NSMakeRange(0, string.length)
                                         unit:NLTokenUnitWord
                                       scheme:NLTagSchemeLexicalClass
                                      options:(NLTaggerOmitPunctuation |
                                               NLTaggerOmitWhitespace |
                                               NLTaggerOmitOther)
                                   usingBlock:^(NLTag _Nullable tag,
                                                NSRange tokenRange,
                                                BOOL * _Nonnull stop){
        
        if (tag == NLTagNoun) {
         
            // Do something...    
        }
    }];

How can I create my own custom function where I can pass through options-like parameters in the same format?

(NLTaggerOmitPunctuation | NLTaggerOmitWhitespace | NLTaggerOmitOther)

A custom method like:

- (void)performActionsWithOptions:(CustomClassOptions)customClassOptions;

Call it like:

[customClass performActionsWithOptions:(CustomClassOption1 | CustomClassOption2)];

I can't figure out the data type since options in the example above is of type "NLTaggerOptions".
