Maximize and minimize

#1

what is the difference between maximize the minimum distance and minimize the maximum distanceā€¦can you briefly explain by taking an example

#2

@kadaparaghavendra1
suppose array given
a[]={1,2,3,4,5}
you have to maximise the minimum distance for calculating the distance from 3 points 2,4,6 resp
from point 2 min dist possible is 2-2=0
from point 4 min dist possible is 4-4=0
from point 6 min dist possible is 6-5=1
so now maximum from the array {0,0,1} = {1}
so maximise the min ans is 1
do the opposite for min the max
i hope its clear if yes dont forget to hit like and mark resolved :smiley:
