What is the time complexity of the Euclidean Algorithm? Also please upvote im really down bad with the downvotes and i want to return to positive contribution. Edit: When i meant the contribution i was hoping to get massivly downvoted.

$$$gcd(a, b)$$$ works in $$$log(a) + log(b)$$$ time
I see my comment got downvoted:( Can somebody please explain why it is $$$log(min(a, b))$$$? I always thought that every step one of the variables is decreased at least two times. Why am I wrong?
Short answer:
log(min(a, b)).Long answer: Stack Overflow my beloved There are multiple explanations for why the time complexity may or may not be something. The case when A and B are very large numbers is also tackled. Really cool!
