Given a non-empty integer array of length n, find the minimum number of moves that make all elements of the array equal. Each movement will increase n-1 elements by 1.
Example:
Input: [1,2,3]
Output: 3
Explanation: Only 3 moves are required (note that each move increases the value of two elements):
[1,2,3] => [2,3,3] => [3,4,3] => [4,4,4]

Method 1: Add 1 to n-1 elements, which is equivalent to subtract 1 from 1 element.
public static int minMoves(int[] nums) {
Arrays.sort(nums);
int sum = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < nums.length; i++) {
sum += nums[i] - nums[0];
}
return sum;
}
