29 Numerics library [numerics]

29.8 Generalized numeric operations [numeric.ops]

29.8.13 Greatest common divisor [numeric.ops.gcd]

template <class M, class N> constexpr common_type_t<M,N> gcd(M m, N n);
Requires: |m| and |n| shall be representable as a value of common_­type_­t<M, N>.
[ Note
:
These requirements ensure, for example, that gcd(m, m) = |m| is representable as a value of type M.

 ]
Remarks: If either M or N is not an integer type, or if either is cv bool, the program is ill-formed.
Returns: Zero when m and n are both zero.
Otherwise, returns the greatest common divisor of |m| and |n|.
Throws: Nothing.
