Leetcode Question: 1637 ******************************************************************

1637. Widest Vertical Area Between Two Points Containing No Points

******************************************************************

Given n points on a 2D plane where points[i] = [xi, yi], Return the widest vertical area between two points such that no points are inside the area.

A vertical area is an area of fixed-width extending infinitely along the y-axis (i.e., infinite height). The widest vertical area is the one with the maximum width.

Note that points on the edge of a vertical area are not considered included in the area.

 

Example 1:

​

Input: points = [[8,7],[9,9],[7,4],[9,7]]
Output: 1
Explanation: Both the red and the blue area are optimal.

Example 2:

Input: points = [[3,1],[9,0],[1,0],[1,4],[5,3],[8,8]]
Output: 3

 

Constraints:

• n == points.length
• 2 <= n <= 105
• points[i].length == 2
• 0 <= xi, yi <= 109
