bits.Mul() Function in Golang is used to find the full-width product of x and y. The execution time of this function does not depend on the inputs. To access this function, one needs to imports the math/bits package in the program. Syntax:
func Mul(x, y uint) (hi, lo uint)
Parameters: This function takes two parameter of uint type, i.e., x, y. Note: (hi, lo) = x * y Here, hi is the product bits' upper half and, lo is the lower half returned. Return Value: This function returns the full-width product of x and y. Example 1: C
// Golang program to illustrate
// bits.Mul() Function
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "math/bits"
)

// Main function
func main() {

    // Using Mul() function
    hi, lo := bits.Mul(5, 10)
    fmt.Println("Full-width product of x and y : ", hi, lo)

}
Output:
Full-width product of x and y :  0 50
Example 2: C
// Golang program to illustrate 
// bits.Mul() Function 
package main 
   
import ( 
    "fmt"
    "math/bits"
) 
   
// Main function 
func main() { 
   
    // Using Mul() function 
    const a, b = 34, 56
    hi, lo  := bits.Mul(a, b) 
    fmt.Println("Number 1:", a) 
    fmt.Println("Number 2:", b) 
    fmt.Println("Upper half:", hi) 
    fmt.Println("Lower half:", lo)  
   
}
Output:
Number 1: 34
Number 2: 56
Upper half: 0
Lower half: 1904
