Hi coders,

Your solution fails for the testcase:

1
6 2
95 38 9 41 57 5 

(the answer should be 4:

Best choice:
  95   38 [  9]  41   57 [  5]
  R    G    R    G    R    G  
max - min = 4

This is my solution

Your solution is O(N^2) (or O(N \times M), or something equally suboptimal :slight_smile: ) and times out on the testcase in this post.
