### arrayGcd
Calculates the greatest common denominator (gcd) of an array of numbers.
Use `Array.reduce()` and the `gcd` formula (uses recursion) to calculate the greatest common denominator of an array of numbers.
```js
const arrayGcd = arr =>{
const gcd = (x, y) => !y ? x : gcd(y, x % y);
return arr.reduce((a,b) => gcd(a,b));
}
// arrayGcd([1,2,3,4,5]) -> 1
// arrayGcd([4,8,12]) -> 4
```
