gcd algorithm java code example

Example 1: gcd in java

public class GCD {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        int n1 = 81, n2 = 153, gcd = 1;

        for(int i = 1; i <= n1 && i <= n2; ++i)
        {
            // Checks if i is factor of both integers
            if(n1 % i==0 && n2 % i==0)
                gcd = i;
        }

        System.out.printf("G.C.D of %d and %d is %d", n1, n2, gcd);
    }
}

Example 2: greatest common divisor java

import java.util.Scanner;
public class GCDExample3 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        int num1, num2;
        
        //Reading the input numbers
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter first number:");
        num1 = (int)scanner.nextInt();
        
        System.out.print("Enter second number:");
        num2 = (int)scanner.nextInt();
        
        //closing the scanner to avoid memory leaks
        scanner.close();
        while (num1 != num2) {
        	if(num1 > num2)
                num1 = num1 - num2;
            else
                num2 = num2 - num1;
        }

        //displaying the result
        System.out.printf("GCD of given numbers is: %d", num2);
    }
