You are given an array prices where prices[i] is the price of a given stock on the ith day.
You want to maximize your profit by choosing a single day to buy one stock and choosing a different day in the future to sell that stock.
Return the maximum profit you can achieve from this transaction. If you cannot achieve any profit, return 0.
Example 1:
Input: prices = [7,1,5,3,6,4]
Output: 5
Explanation: Buy on day 2 (price = 1) and sell on day 5 (price = 6), profit = 6-1 = 5.
Note that buying on day 2 and selling on day 1 is not allowed because you must buy before you sell.
Example 2:
Input: prices = [7,6,4,3,1]
Output: 0
Explanation: In this case, no transactions are done and the max profit = 0.
Constraints:
1 <= prices.length <= 1050 <= prices[i] <= 104
解法一：
这道题只需要遍历一次数组，用一个变量记录遍历过数中的最小值，然后每次计算当前值和这个最小值之间的差值最为利润，然后每次选较大的利润来更新。当遍历完成后当前利润即为所求，代码如下：
class Solution {
fun maxProfit(prices: IntArray): Int {
var result = 0
var buy = Int.MAX_VALUE
prices.forEach {
buy = Math.min(buy, it)
result = Math.max(result, it - buy)
}
return result
}
}
