You are given a positive integer array nums.

\n\n

Partition nums into two arrays, nums1 and nums2, such that:

\n\n\n\n

The value of the partition is |max(nums1) - min(nums2)|.

\n\n

Here, max(nums1) denotes the maximum element of the array nums1, and min(nums2) denotes the minimum element of the array nums2.

\n\n

Return the integer denoting the value of such partition.

\n\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: nums = [1,3,2,4]\nOutput: 1\nExplanation: We can partition the array nums into nums1 = [1,2] and nums2 = [3,4].\n- The maximum element of the array nums1 is equal to 2.\n- The minimum element of the array nums2 is equal to 3.\nThe value of the partition is |2 - 3| = 1. \nIt can be proven that 1 is the minimum value out of all partitions.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: nums = [100,1,10]\nOutput: 9\nExplanation: We can partition the array nums into nums1 = [10] and nums2 = [100,1].\n- The maximum element of the array nums1 is equal to 10.\n- The minimum element of the array nums2 is equal to 1.\nThe value of the partition is |10 - 1| = 9.\nIt can be proven that 9 is the minimum value out of all partitions.\n
