Question
25. Minimum Difference Sum
Given an array of n integers, rearrange them so
that the sum of the absolute differences of all
adjacent elements is minimized. Then, compute the
sum of those absolute differences.
Example
n = 5
arr = [1, 3, 3, 2, 4]
If the list is rearranged as arr' = [1, 2, 3, 3, 4], the
absolute differences are /1-2/ = 1, 12-3|= 1, 13-
3|=0, 13-4/= 1. The sum of those differences is
1+1+0+1 = 3.
Function Description
Complete the function minDiff in the editor below.
minDiff has the following parameter:
arr: an integer array
Returns:
int: the sum of the absolute differences of
adjacent elements
