Everything about Extended Euclidean algorithm

Method for computing the relation of two integers with their greatest common divisor

In arithmetic and computer programming, the extended Euclidean algorithm is an extension to the Euclidean algorithm, and computes, in addition to the greatest common divisor (gcd) of integers a and b, also the coefficients of Bézout's identity, which are integers x and y such that ; it is generally denoted as.
