Objective:
The absolute difference between two integers, a and b, is written as |a - b|. The maximum absolute difference
between two integers in a set of positive integers, elements, is the largest absolute difference between any
two integers in elements.
The Difference class is started for you in the editor. It has a private integer array (elements) for storing N
non-negative integers, and a public integer (maximumDifference) for storing the maximum absolute difference.
Task:
Complete the Difference class by writing the following:
- A class constructor that takes an array of integers as a parameter and saves it to the
elementsinstance variable. - A computeDifference method that finds the maximum absolute difference between any
2numbers inNand stores it in themaximumDifferenceinstance variable.
Input Format
You are not responsible for reading any input from stdin. The locked Solution class in your editor reads in 2
lines of input; the first line contains N, and the second line describes the elemants array.
Constraints:
1 <= N <= 101 <= elements[i] <= 100, where 0 <= i <= N - 1
Output Format
You are not responsible for printing any output; the Solution class will print the value of the maximumDifference
instance variable.
