LCM Calculator v1

The Last API Ever, to find the LCM of a range of numbers

About Application

Finds the smallest number that can be divided by a sequential set of numbers from 1 till a given range

Example: 1,2,3,4,5 = 60

60 is the smallest number that can be divided by each of the numbers from 1 to 5 without any remainder.

This program is intended to extend another application. For instance as (micro)service to your existing product

Usage

#Instructions:
Perform a GET-request to path: localhost:8080/LeastCommonMultipleTill, proceeded with a query parameter: till
Tip: Use an http client like Postman to test the requests.

      Example:

localhost:8080/LeastCommonMultiple?till=13

      The API will return a string containing:

360360 is the smallest number that can be divided by each of the numbers from 1 to 13 without any remainder.

      Notes & Limits:

• Inserting value other than number will return statuscode of 400 - BAD Request
• Note that its not possible to request a maximum range greater then 42
• Results of this application are tested based on the standards of Calculator.net

Considered Updates:

• Ability to calculate LCM of range x till x. Example: 3 - 45, 13 - 17, 19 - 23
• Ability to calculate LCM of x numbers. Where x are multiple random numbers. Example 23, 4, 15 and 8 = 2760
