This is the problem:  https://www.hackerrank.com/challenges/minimum-absolute-difference-in-an-array : Consider an array of integers,  . We define the   absolute difference   between two elements,     and     (where   ), to be the   absolute value   of   . Given an array of   integers, find and print the minimum absolute difference between any two elements in the array. Input Format The first line contains a single integer denoting   (the number of integers).  The second line contains   space-separated integers describing the respective values of  . Constraints Output Format Print the minimum absolute difference between any two elements in the array. Sample Input 0 3 3 -7 0 Sample Output 0 3 One way that I found to solve the problem was in NLogN-time (I think there is a linear solution to this problem too): (quic...
