Q1. What is gcd? And explain it
Ans. 
gcd stands for greatest common divisor, the largest positive integer that divides two or more numbers without leaving a remainder.
• gcd is used to find the largest integer that can evenly divide two or more numbers.

• It is commonly used in mathematics and computer science algorithms.

• For example, the gcd of 12 and 18 is 6, as 6 is the largest number that can divide both 12 and 18 without leaving a remainder.

Q2. Is time complexity of HashMap always O(1) ?
Ans. 
No, time complexity of HashMap is not always O(1).
• Time complexity of HashMap is O(1) on average, but can degrade to O(n) in worst case scenarios.

• Worst case scenarios include hash collisions, which can lead to linear probing and degrade performance.

• Load factor and capacity of the HashMap can also affect time complexity.

• In scenarios where many keys hash to the same index, the time complexity can degrade.
