1464. Maximum Product of Two Elements in an Array

Easy

Given the array of integers nums, you will choose two different indices i and j of that array. Return the maximum value of (nums[i]-1)*(nums[j]-1).

Example 1:

Input: nums = [3,4,5,2]

Output: 12

Explanation: If you choose the indices i=1 and j=2 (indexed from 0), you will get the maximum value, that is, (nums[1]-1)*(nums[2]-1) = (4-1)*(5-1) = 3*4 = 12.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [1,5,4,5]

Output: 16

Explanation: Choosing the indices i=1 and j=3 (indexed from 0), you will get the maximum value of (5-1)*(5-1) = 16.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [3,7]

Output: 12

Solution

class Solution {
    fun maxProduct(nums: IntArray): Int {
        var first = Int.MIN_VALUE
        var second = Int.MIN_VALUE
        for (num in nums) {
            if (num >= first) {
                second = first
                first = num
            } else if (num >= second) {
                second = num
            }
        }
        return (first - 1) * (second - 1)
    }
}
