While using fmod(k+1,pow(2,n)) will work in this case, it is most
definitely not a good idea. Suppose the bounds were a bit bigger so
that 64 bit integers were required, rather than just 32-bit ones.

Then pow(2,60) is equal to 1152921504606847000, while 1LL<<60 is
1152921504606846976.

You should get in the habit of never using floating point arithmetic
when only integers are involved.
