I am solving the following problem:
Given an array of N (N<=5*10^5) numbers. Consider the GCD of all the subarrays and print the no. of distinct GCD's found over all subarrays. A[i]<=10^18.
I am using the fact that for a fixed element A[i], GCD decreases as we increase the subarray length starting from element A[i]. So I considered all subarrays starting from index i and using binary search + sparse matrix(for range gcd) computed the indices where GCD changes and inserted the GCDs in a set and did the same for all other indices. But getting TLE. Please suggest some optimization or some other approach for this problem.

The number of different gcd values of consecutive subsequences headed by A[i] is at most log(n)，so we can save these gcd values for every A[i], the different gcd values generated by A[i+1] are used to update the different gcd values generated by A[i]. so it cost O(nlogn) time complexity and space complexity。
This is an extension of the original problem: You are asked to answer q queries. Each query asks how many different gcd values are in the interval [l,r]。
freeloop2 Thanks for the reply . Can you explain this line " the different gcd values generated by A[i+1] are used to update the different gcd values generated by A[i]. so it cost O(nlogn) time complexity and space complexity" a bit more ??
Different gcd values of consecutive subsequences headed by A[i] equals gcd(A[i], Different gcd values of consecutive subsequences headed by A[i+1] ).
freeloop2 Thanks got accepted , didn't know about log(n) factor before this problem. Can you provide the link to the query version of this problem??
OK，here is the link: Different GCD Subarry Query have fun!
It would be very helpful if someone can post editorial for the above problem/similar problem which freeloop2 has provided!!(Different GCD Subarry Query)
Can you post a link to the question?
It seems to me it will help you link.
