am new to python and I wanted to understand something. how does this work: (a,b) = (1,2) because I thought this assigns 1 to a and 2 to b . but when I tryed running euclid's algorithm something different happened and i didnt understand why.
def gcd(n,m):
while(m>0):
(n,m) = (m , n % m)
return n
print(gcd(45,126))
how is that ^ different from this:
def gcd(n,m):
while(m>0):
n = m
m = n % m
return n
print(gcd(45,126))
