Thanks for all the replies, it looks like there is a lot of support for having gcd 0 0 = 0. I've since discovered that there was a similar discussion in 2001, where the majority supported gcd 0 0 = 0, but the suggested change was never implemented. http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell/2001-December/008560.html On Sat, 2009-05-02 at 13:17 +0200, Martijn van Steenbergen wrote:

Why is gcd 0 0 undefined?
That's a good question. Can you submit an official proposal?

Thanks,

OK, I'll work my way through proposal steps. Steve
