Write a C program to find the GCD of two given integers using non-recursive function

In this article, we will write a C program to find the GCD of two given integers using a non-recursive function.

GCD means Greatest Common Divisor. i.e the highest number which divides the given number.

Example: GCD(12,24) is 12 

Formula: GCD= product of numbers/ LCM of numbers 

Algorithm: 

Step 1: start 

Step 2: read a,b 

Step 3: call sub program g=GCD(a,b) 

Step 4: print the g value 

Step 5: stop 

Sub program: 

Step 1: initialize the p=1, q, remainder 

Step 2: remainder=p-(p/q*q) 

Step 3: remainder=0 return q else goto step 4 

Step 4: GCD(q,remainder) return to main program 

Write a C program to find the GCD of two given integers using non-recursive function

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <math.h>

int gcdnonrecursive(int m, int n)
{
	int remainder;
	remainder = m - (m / n *n);
	if (remainder == 0)
		return n;
	else
		gcdnonrecursive(n, remainder);
}
void main()
{
	int a, b, igcd;
	clrscr();
	printf("enter the two numbers whose gcd is to be found:");
	scanf("%d%d", &a, &b);
	printf("GCD of %d", gcdnonrecursive(a, b));
	getch();
}

Output:

enter the two numbers whose gcd is to be found:5,25
 GCD of a,b is : 5
