1330. Reverse Subarray To Maximize Array Value

Difficulty Topics

Description

You are given an integer array nums. The value of this array is defined as the sum of |nums[i] - nums[i + 1]| for all 0 <= i < nums.length - 1.

You are allowed to select any subarray of the given array and reverse it. You can perform this operation only once.

Find maximum possible value of the final array.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,3,1,5,4]
Output: 10
Explanation: By reversing the subarray [3,1,5] the array becomes [2,5,1,3,4] whose value is 10.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [2,4,9,24,2,1,10]
Output: 68

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 3 * 104
  • -105 <= nums[i] <= 105
