What was wrong?

Un-necessary new library.

How was it fixed?

Figured out how to do it without the library.

Cute Animal Picture

put a cute animal picture link inside the parentheses

else:
result = bit_vector.shift_left(shift_length).int_val()
result = (value * 2**shift_length) & constants.UINT_256_MAX

A quick test shows that replacing this with (value << shift_length) & constants.UINT_256_MAX passes all the tests.

Indeed! I have to read up on that magic!

result = bit_vector.shift_right(shift_length).int_val()
result = (value // 2**shift_length)

This one errored out when I changed it to value >> shift_length with an overflow error saying the integer is too large to convert to the c_type, probably something that could be worked around if we're clever.

It works with the same trick (value >> shift_length) & constants.UINT_256_MAX
