Examples

Example: `<gcd>` of nested list of integers

The integer arguments to the <gcd> function are entered directly between the opening and closing tags.

Example: `<gcd>` of variable number of user-inputs

The user is prompted to enter the size of a list of integers using a <mathInput>. This number of <mathInput> blanks are then generated with a <repeat>. Finally, the <gcd> of the entered values is computed with reference to the named <repeat>.

Example: `<gcd>` used in a multiple-choice problem

The <gcd> component is used to render each available <choice> component inside an <answer>.
