Python: Calculate Euclid's totient function of a given integer
Python Basic - 1: Exercise-120 with Solution
In number theory, Euler's totient function counts the positive integers up to a given integer n that are relatively prime to n. It is written using the Greek letter phi as φ(n) or ϕ(n), and may also be called Euler's phi function.
Write a Python program to calculate Euclid's totient function for a given integer. Use a primitive method to calculate Euclid's totient function.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
def gcd(p,q):
# Create the gcd of two positive integers.
while q != 0:
p, q = q, p%q
return p
def is_coprime(x, y):
return gcd(x, y) == 1
def phi_func(x):
if x == 1:
return 1
else:
n = [y for y in range(1,x) if is_coprime(x,y)]
return len(n)
print(phi_func(10))
print(phi_func(15))
print(phi_func(33))
Sample Output:
4 8 20
