maximum-difference-between-adjacent-elements-in-a-circular-array


Given a circular array nums, find the maximum absolute difference between adjacent elements.



Note: In a circular array, the first and last elements are adjacent.



 


Example 1:




Input: nums = [1,2,4]



Output: 3



Explanation:



Because nums is circular, nums[0] and nums[2] are adjacent. They have the maximum absolute difference of |4 - 1| = 3.




Example 2:




Input: nums = [-5,-10,-5]



Output: 5



Explanation:



The adjacent elements nums[0] and nums[1] have the maximum absolute difference of |-5 - (-10)| = 5.




 


Constraints:




  • 2 <= nums.length <= 100

  • -100 <= nums[i] <= 100
