"""
Find the modular multiplicative inverse of a modulo m.
The modular multiplicative inverse of a modulo m is an integer x such that:
(a * x) % m = 1
This function uses the Extended Euclidean Algorithm to find the inverse.
An inverse exists if and only if a and m are coprime (gcd(a, m) = 1).
Args:
a: The integer to find the inverse of
m: The modulus
Returns:
The modular multiplicative inverse of a modulo m
Raises:
ValueError: If gcd(a, m) != 1 (inverse does not exist)

Examples:
>>> find_mod_inverse(3, 7)
5
>>> (3 * 5) % 7 # Verify: 3 * 5 ≡ 1 (mod 7)
1
>>> find_mod_inverse(3, 10)
7
>>> (3 * 7) % 10 # Verify: 3 * 7 ≡ 1 (mod 10)
1
>>> find_mod_inverse(4, 11)
3
>>> (4 * 3) % 11 # Verify: 4 * 3 ≡ 1 (mod 11)
1
>>> find_mod_inverse(7, 26)
15
>>> (7 * 15) % 26 # Verify: 7 * 15 ≡ 1 (mod 26)
