How to compute the greatest common divisor of numbers in data editor, without using YC Column ?  
It may be trivial but I currently don’t know how to deal with the math functions currently available in Glide.  
Thanks!

I did have a read about methods to calculate GCD and don’t think there’s any easy way to do this directly in Glide.

Absolutely agree, I struggled all day to understand but failed in Glide.  
Thanks
