A fast Euclidean algorithm for Gaussian integers

From MaRDI portal





Euclid's algorithm with Gaussian integers is carried out using approximate division (leading parts only). Often the quotient has small components, and then addition and shifting can be used instead of multiplication, thereby speeding up the process. Experiments with randomly chosen numbers are reported, with tables showing the improvement obtained.
