Minimum Absolute Difference in an Array

  • marinskiy + 1 comment

    Here is Python 3 solution from my HackerrankPractice repository:

    _ = input()
arr = sorted(map(int, input().split()))
diff = 2*10**9
for i in range(1, len(arr)):
    diff = min(diff, arr[i] - arr[i-1])
print(diff)

    Feel free to ask if you have any questions :)

      Thank you for sharing - I was thinking along the same lines. Is there any reason why you chose 2 billion as your upper bound for the difference? Why not math.inf?
