Assuming that the price of a certain stock is stored in an array in chronological order, what is the maximum profit that can be obtained from buying and selling the stock at one time?
Example 1:
输入: [7,1,5,3,6,4]
输出: 5
解释: 在第 2 天(股票价格 = 1)的时候买入,在第 5 天(股票价格 = 6)的时候卖出,最大利润 = 6-1 = 5 。
注意利润不能是 7-1 = 6, 因为卖出价格需要大于买入价格。
Example 2:
输入: [7,6,4,3,1]
输出: 0
解释: 在这种情况下, 没有交易完成, 所以最大利润为 0。
Restrictions:
0 <= array length <= 10^5

class Solution {
public:
int maxProfit(vector<int>& prices) {
int inf = 1e9;//1e9 为1 000 000 000
int minprice = inf, maxprofit = 0;
for (int price: prices) {
maxprofit = max(maxprofit, price - minprice);
//第一轮的maxprofit为0,第二轮:若prices[1]<prices[0],
//则maxprofit为prices[1]-prices[0]
minprice = min(price, minprice);
//第一轮的minprofit为prices[0]
}
return maxprofit;
}
