Calculating GCD for 2 integers
I have implemented a method which takes 2 numbers and returns the Greatest Common Divisor, using the Euclidean algorithm. … The Euclidean algorithm goes like this:
If we take the numbers 585 and 442:
585 / 442 = 1 (remainder 143)
442 / 143 = 3 (remainder 13)
143 / 13 = 11 (remainder 0)
The process stops here and GCD = 13. …
