I write two code to compute gcd in python3, but math.gcd is much faster than gcd.
Here is my code.
def gcd(a, b):
while a:
a, b = b % a, a
return b
x, y = map(int, input().split())
print(gcd(x, y))
And another code.
import math
x, y = map(int, input().split())
print(math.gcd(x, y))
What's the implemention of math.gcd? Thanks in advance.

I think, maybe math.gcd is speeded by cplusplus to improve its efficiency.
Because it is actually a C function. Search for
_PyLong_GCD
in this.Thanks!
