function resetValues() {
var p = parseFloat($("#IA").val());
var q = parseFloat($("#IB").val());
var m = parseFloat($("#CGCD").val());
var aR = [];
aR.push("GCD(" + p + "," + q + ")=" + m);

$("#IA").focus();
}
The function provided above is designed specifically for resetting values, as part of a larger code implementation aimed at calculating the Greatest Common Denominator (GCD).
This 'resetValues' function is linked to a button identified as #reset. When this button is clicked, it performs four main tasks:
- Adds and stores the string GCD(p,q)=m into the 'aR' array, where p/q/m represent placeholder variables for values inputted in text areas #IA, #IB, and #CGCD respectively;
- Displays the contents of the 'aR' array within the text-area #PGCD each time the reset button is activated, utilizing an array structure for this specific purpose;
- Clears the content of two input text areas, #IA and #IB;
- Clears the output from a designated text area.
While the functionality achieves its intended goals effectively, there is one limitation: only the most recent GCD calculation is shown in the output. Previous calculations are not retained or displayed.
An issue arises in attempting to list multiple saved calculations within the array. It is suspected that new calculations are being added to the array but may not be correctly formatted for display.
Various strategies such as 'for' and 'if' statements were explored to address this challenge without success. The inability to locate a suitable solution on available forums further compounds the problem.
Your insights and suggestions are greatly appreciated.
