Problem:
Greatest Common Divisor

Write a program which finds the greatest common divisor of two natural numbers a and b

Input

a and b are given in a line sparated by a single space.

Output

Output the greatest common divisor of a and b.

Constrants

1 ≤ a, b ≤ 109

Hint

You can use the following observation:

For integers x and y, if x ≥ y, then gcd(x, y) = gcd(y, x%y)

Sample Input 1

54 20

Sample Output 1

2

Sample Input 2

147 105

Sample Output 2

21

Solution in JAVA (judge verdict: Accepted)


import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
		int x = in.nextInt();
		int y = in.nextInt();
		System.out.println(findGCD(x, y));
	}

	/**
	 * finds the GCD of x and y
	 */
	public static int findGCD(int x, int y) {
		if (y == 0) {
			return x;
		} else {
			return findGCD(y, x % y);
		}
	}
