    return quasi {
        my t = {{{a}}};
        {{{a}}} = {{{b}}};
        {{{b}}} = t;
    };
}
func gcd(a, b) {
    if b {
        return gcd(b, a % b);
    }
    return a.abs();
}
my bigger = +prompt("Enter the bigger integer: ");
my smaller = +prompt("Enter the smaller integer: ");
if bigger < smaller {
    swap(bigger, smaller);
}
say();
say("Greatest common denominator: ", gcd(bigger, smaller));
