Python | math.gcd() function

In Python, math module contains a number of mathematical operations, which can be performed with ease using the module. math.gcd() function compute the greatest common divisor of 2 numbers mentioned in its arguments.

Syntax: math.gcd(x, y) Parameter: x : Non-negative integer whose gcd has to be computed. y : Non-negative integer whose gcd has to be computed. Returns: An absolute/positive integer value after calculating the GCD of given parameters x and y. Exceptions : When Both x and y are 0, function returns 0, If any number is a character, Type error is raised.

Time Complexity: O(1)

Auxiliary Space: O(1)

Code #1: 

The gcd of 60 and 48 is : 12

  Code #2:

math.gcd(69, 23) : 5

Code #3: Explaining Exception. 

Output: 

The gcd of 0 and 0 is : 0

The gcd of a and 13 is :
