I followed the steps of Euclid's algorithm but I was stunned when a divide by zero problem appeared. I don't know how it can happen.
CodePudding user response:
The problem is with the below two lines.
a[0] = c/a[0];
a[1] = d/a[0];
First statement will make a[0] as 0 since c is 0. Next statement will be 1/0.
