Problem 84. Longest Divisor Run

Created by Cody Team

Solve Later

Given the vector a, find the longest run of consecutive numbers that can be evenly divided by the same number d where d > 1.

Example:

 Input  a = [5 4 2 8 3 7 14]
 Output len is 3, d is 2

The last two numbers, 7 and 14, are divisible by 7, but the run of numbers [4 2 8] are all divisible by 2. So the longest run is 3. You can assume that d is unique.

A lot of the smaller answers use gcd, which fails for a=[2 4 6 9 18 21]. This is because the gcd of 9 and 18 is 9, but for 6 and 9 it's 3, which throws off the tally count because 3 is also common between 9 and 18.
