Challenge - GCD of Two Integers Using the <requires> Clause

Let’s try to solve the GCD problem by using the <requires> clause.

Problem

Write a function that takes two integer numbers as parameters and returns the greatest common divisor (GCD) of two numbers.

Restriction

We can only use a template function based on the requires clause.

Input

Two integer numbers a and b, as shown below

a = 3, b = 9

Output

A real number, as shown below.

3

Sample main function

int main()
{
    std::cout<<gcd(3,9)<<'\n';
}

Note: We don’t need to write the main function in the code below.
