Write a function that computes the greatest common divisor of four natural numbers a, b, c and d using the fast version of the Euclidean algorithm.

Interface

C++,C
int gcd4(int a, int b, int c, int d);
Java
public static int gcd4(int a, int b, int c, int d);
Python
gcd4(a, b, c, d) # returns int
 
gcd4(a: int, b: int, c: int, d: int) -> int

Precondition

The four numbers are strictly greater than zero.

Observation You only need to submit the required procedure; your main program will be ignored.

Hint

Using the function gcd(a, b) of the exercise ‍ should be useful.

Public test cases
  • Input/Output

    gcd4(66, 12, 1200, 36) → 6
    gcd4(10, 6, 21, 35) → 1
