Bézout’s identity (GCD Calculator)



Bézout’s identity (GCD Calculator) Example run with the numbers 771 and 991 as input. The resulting gcd is 3 and the bezout identy is 24 and -31.

As my first complete Java project in the university, this tool can calutate the greatest common divisor together with the Bézout identity of the input.

Bézout’s identity – Let a and b be integers with greatest common divisor d. Then, there exist integers x and y such that ax + by = d. More generally, the integers of the form ax + by are exactly the multiples of d.

The motivation for creating this tool was the repetitive work that would have been needed for completing the university homework this was programmed for.
