C program to find GCD Using for loop

In this program, two integers entered by the user are stored in variable n1 and n2.Then, for loop is iterated until i is less than n1 and n2.

In each iteration, if both n1 and n2 are exactly divisible by i, the value of i is assigned to gcd.

When the for loop is completed, the greatest common divisor of two numbers is stored in variable gcd.


#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
int n1, n2, i, gcd;

printf("Enter two integers: ");
scanf("%d %d", &n1, &n2);

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

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

return 0;
}
