+# LOJ 1077 - How Many Points?
+
+
+## Solution
+The Number of lattice points lie on the segment **A(x1, y1) -> B(x2, y2)** is same for segment **A(0, 0) -> B(x2 - x1, y2 - y1)** (co-ordinate translation doesn't change the relative distance of lattice points from each other) and so for segment **A(0, 0) -> B(|x2 - x1|, |y2 - y1|)** (sign (+/-) only let's us know in which quadrant the segment will fall. Number of lattice points is length dependent not quadrant dependent).
+
+So, how to calculate the number of lattice points on any segment **A(0, 0) -> B(x, y)** where **x, y >= 0**? The answer is: **gcd(x, y) + 1**. Why?
+
+Suppose, **g = gcd(x, y)** then, all the lattice points are:
+
+**(0 * x/g, 0 * y/g), (1 * x/g, 1 * y/g), . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . , ((g-1) * x/g, (g-1) * y/g), (g * x/g, g * y/g)** total of **(g + 1)** points with integer abscissas and ordinates.
+
+But what's the proof they lie on the segment **AB** and there can't be any other lattice points?
