Write a program that applies the euclidean algorithm to find the greatest common divisor of two integers. input should be two integers a and b and output should be the greatest common divisor of a and b. test your program with several examples using both positive and negative values for a and b.

// here is code in c++.

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

// function that return greatest common divisor

int g_c_d(int num1, int num2)

{

if (num1 == 0)

 return num2;

return g_c_d(num2 % num1, num1);

}

// main function

int main()

{

// variables

int num1,num2;

cout<<"enter two numbers:";

// read two numbers from user

cin>>num1>>num2;

// call the function and print the gcd of both

cout<<"greatest common divisor of "<<num1<<" and "<<num2<<" is "<<g_c_d(num1.num2)<<endl;

}

Explanation:

Read two numbers from user and assign them to variables "num1" and "num2".Call the function g_c_d() with parameter "num1" and "num2".According to Euclidean algorithm, if we subtract smaller number from the larger one the gcd will not change.Keep subtracting the smaller one then we find the gcd of both the numbers.So the function g_c_d() will return the gcd of both the numbers.

Output:

enter two numbers:5 9

greatest common divisor of 5 and 9 is 1

enter two numbers:-25 15

greatest common divisor of -25 and 15 is 5

a  social news website  is an  internet  website  that features  user-posted stories. such stories are ranked based on popularity, as voted on by other users of the site or by website administrators. users typically comment online on the news posts and these comments may also be ranked in popularity. since their emergence with the birth of  web 2.0, social news sites have been used to link many types of information, including news, humor, support, and discussion. all such websites allow the users to submit content and each site differs in how the content is moderated. on the  slashdot  and  fark  websites,  administrators  decide which articles are selected for the front page. on  reddit  and  digg, the articles that get the most votes from the community of users will make it to the front page. many social news websites also feature an online comment system, where users discuss the issues raised in an article. some of these sites have also applied their voting system to the comments, so that the most popular comments are displayed first. some social news websites also have a  social networking  function, in that users can set up a user profile and follow other users' online activity on the website.
