Extended Euclidean algorithm (tools/extgcd.hpp)

template <typename T>
std::tuple<T, T, T> extgcd(T a, T b);

It returns $(x_0, y_0, \gcd(a, b))$ which satisfies

\[\begin{align*} \left\{\begin{array}{l} a x_0 + b y_0 = \gcd(a, b)\\ |x_0| \leq \max\left(1, \left\lfloor\frac{|b|}{2 \gcd(a, b)}\right\rfloor\right)\\ |y_0| \leq \max\left(1, \left\lfloor\frac{|a|}{2 \gcd(a, b)}\right\rfloor\right) \end{array}\right.& \end{align*}\]

In this function, we define $\gcd(a, 0) = a$, $\gcd(0, b) = b$ and $\gcd(0, 0) = 0$.

Constraints

None

Time Complexity

$O(\log(\min(|a|, |b|)))$
