gollark: Python's arbitrarily large integers probably do *not* have constant time bitshifting, so I don't think this is actually the complexity you said.
gollark: Wait, is your estimate of the complexity assuming the bitshifts will take the same time regardless of how big the numbers are?
gollark: What's n meant to be?
gollark: Being Python, which uses bignums by default, an optimized C implementation which did multiplication too might be faster.
gollark: ... okay.
