Problem Statement

You are given an integer sequence A of length N.
Find the maximum absolute difference of two elements (with different indices) in A.

Constraints

2 \leq N \leq 100

1 \leq A_i \leq 10^9

All values in input are integers.

Input

Input is given from Standard Input in the following format:

N
A_1 A_2 ... A_N

Output

Print the maximum absolute difference of two elements (with different indices) in A.

Sample Input 1

4
1 4 6 3

Sample Output 1

5

The maximum absolute difference of two elements is A_3-A_1=6-1=5.

Sample Input 2
