The function gcd() provides the direct way to compute Greatest Common Divisor for polynomials.That is, for polynomials f and g, it computes GCD.

Syntax: sympy.gcd(f, g)

Return: GCD of given polynomials

Example #1:




# import sympy  
from sympy import * f = (12 * x + 12)*x
g = 32 * x**2
  
# Using sympy.gcd() method 
gfg = gcd(f, g)  
  
print(gfg)


Output:

4*x

Example #2:




# import sympy  
from sympy import * f = 3 * x**2 / 2
g = 9 * x / 4
  
# Using sympy.gcd() method 
gfg = gcd(f, g)  
  
print(gfg)


Output:

x
