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 <= 105`
|
|
* `0 <= prices[i] <= 104` |
