Python program to find HCF or GCD.

# Python program to find H.C.F of two numbers
# define a function
def compute_hcf(x, y):
# choose the smaller number
    if x > y:
        smaller = y
    else:
        smaller = x
    for i in range(1, smaller+1):
        if((x % i == 0) and (y % i == 0)):
            hcf = i 
    return hcf
num1 = 54 
num2 = 24
print("The H.C.F. is", compute_hcf(num1, num2))
