Describe your change

  • Add an algorithm?
  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?
  • Add or change doctests? -- Note: Please avoid changing both code and tests in a single pull request.
  • Documentation change?

The function converts both inputs to binary strings and calculates their lengths, but the resulting max_len is immediately overwritten using bit_length(). Remove these unnecessary calculations while preserving the existing behaviour.
