Multiplication (Multiplication)

Description

Multiplication is one of the four elementary mathematical operations of arithmetic; with the others being addition; subtraction and division. Given two $n$-bit integers, compute their product, which should be a $2n$-bit integer.

Parameters

$n$: length of one of the integers, in bits
