The GCD of three or more numbers equals the product of the prime factors common to all the numbers, but it can also be calculated by repeatedly taking the GCDs of pairs of numbers.

gcd(a, b, c) = gcd(a, gcd(b, c)) 
             = gcd(gcd(a, b), c) 
             = gcd(gcd(a, c), b)
CPP
C#
Output:
2

Time Complexity: O(N * log(N)), where N is the largest element of the array
Auxiliary Space: O(1), ignoring the stack space used in recursion 

Implementation of the same code with Iterative GCD Function


Output
2

Time Complexity: O(N * log(N)), where N is the largest element of the array
Auxiliary Space: O(1)
