lcm - least common multiple

### Calling Sequence

  `[pp,fact]=lcm(p)`

### Parameters

- `p` :
- `fact` : polynomial vector or integer vector (type equal to 8)
- `pp` : polynomial or integer

### Description

`pp=lcm(p)` computes the lcm `pp` of polynomial vector `p` .

`[pp,fact]=lcm(p)` computes in addition the vector `fact` such that:

`p.*fact=pp*ones(p)`

### Examples

    //polynomial case
    s=poly(0,'s');
    p=[s,s*(s+1)^2,s^2*(s+2)];
    [pp,fact]=lcm(p);
    p.*fact, pp
    //integer case
    V=int32([2^2*3^5, 2^3*3^2,2^2*3^4*5]);
    lcm(V)
