2740. Find the Value of the Partition
Medium
30 Points
Array
Sorting
You are given a positive integer array nums.
Partition nums into two arrays, nums1 and nums2, such that:
The value of the partition is |max(nums1) - min(nums2)|.
Here, max(nums1) denotes the maximum element of the array nums1, and min(nums2) denotes the minimum element of the array nums2.
Return the integer denoting the value of such partition.
Examples
Example 1
Input: nums = [1,3,2,4]
Output: 1
Explanation: We can partition the array nums into nums1 = [1,2] and nums2 = [3,4].
- The maximum element of the array nums1 is equal to 2.
- The minimum element of the array nums2 is equal to 3.
The value of the partition is |2 - 3| = 1.
It can be proven that 1 is the minimum value out of all partitions.
Example 2
Input: nums = [100,1,10]
Output: 9
Explanation: We can partition the array nums into nums1 = [10] and nums2 = [100,1].
- The maximum element of the array nums1 is equal to 10.
- The minimum element of the array nums2 is equal to 1.
The value of the partition is |10 - 1| = 9.
It can be proven that 9 is the minimum value out of all partitions.
Constraints
2 <= nums.length <= 105
1 <= nums[i] <= 109
