Thanks man!



[olawraia]

you write an awful code just improve it

[hendrix5045]

@olawraia , I'll get right on that as soon as you learn some grammar.

[Yondaimeku]

@hendrix5045 I wouldn't call it awful, everyone has their ways of doing something. I think he's just trying to say the same results could have been achieved with less coding.

[hendrix5045]

@Yondaimeku , Instead of being condescending why don't you just explain how it could be better.

[arHHco]

@Yondaimeku simply because u unnecessarily called those strange variables divisor dividend, when you could simply do ur code in few lines like

while(b>0){ c=a%b; a=b; b=c; } cout<< a;

[hendrix5045]

@arHHco , strange variables? Naming variables what they actually are is programming etiquette 101. I would argue that using random letters as variables would make it much more complicated and harder to understand. That's the point of giving variables names you can relate to. However, this code was written a long time ago and I could make it more efficient, but that would not entail changing the variable names.

thanks man :D

[hendrix5045]

@xiAresx , No it wont.  You could send me the math problem you have though and I could do it :)

hi what program is that ?=) *repz*

[08deblyh]

Thanks. The video is helpful for newbies.

[colemanizzle13]

Awesome video man. Thanks a bunch for making this. Really helped me out in one of my assignments.

[NinjuhMunk]

Great video, could you send me the program?

[soik90]

Thank you so much for explaining this with simple code. All the other solutions I could find involved code I haven't learned yet.

nice video!

if anyone's interested, I have written a C#-Version that lets you choose between the original euclidean algorithm and the modern one (that you implemented):

nice

[Sk8eRPR]

Cool!

5 stars!
