    1913 - Maximum Product Difference Between Two Pairs.

    Easy

    The product difference between two pairs (a, b) and (c, d) is defined as (a * b) - (c * d).

    • For example, the product difference between (5, 6) and (2, 7) is (5 * 6) - (2 * 7) = 16.

    Given an integer array nums, choose four distinct indices w, x, y, and z such that the product difference between pairs (nums[w], nums[x]) and (nums[y], nums[z]) is maximized.

    Return the maximum such product difference.

    Example 1:

    Input: nums = 5,6,2,7,4

    Output: 34

    Explanation: We can choose indices 1 and 3 for the first pair (6, 7) and indices 2 and 4 for the second pair (2, 4).

    The product difference is (6 \* 7) - (2 \* 4) = 34.

    Example 2:

    Input: nums = 4,2,5,9,7,4,8

    Output: 64

    Explanation: We can choose indices 3 and 6 for the first pair (9, 8) and indices 1 and 5 for the second pair (2, 4).

    The product difference is (9 \* 8) - (2 \* 4) = 64.

    Constraints:

    • <code>4 <= nums.length <= 10<sup>4</sup></code>

    • <code>1 <= numsi<= 10<sup>4</sup></code>
