Question

How to find the maximum difference between two successive elements in an int array with Go

Answer 1

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"math"
)

func maxDifference(arr []int) int {
	if len(arr) < 2 {
		return 0 
	}

	maxDiff := math.MinInt32
	for i := 1; i < len(arr); i++ {
		diff := arr[i] - arr[i-1]
		if diff > maxDiff {
			maxDiff = diff
		}
	}
	
	return maxDiff
}

func main() {
	arr := []int{3, 1, 9, 5, 11, 13} // 1, 9 -> 8
	
	fmt.Println(maxDifference(arr))
}



/*
run:

8
