Problem: Minimum Time Difference

med
30 min
Explore how to calculate the minimum time difference between any two 24-hour clock time points by organizing data with sorting and applying search strategies. This lesson helps you understand and implement efficient algorithmic solutions to handle large input sizes while mastering time manipulation problems in coding interviews.

Statement

Given a list of 2424-hour clock time points in "HH:MM" format, return the minimum difference in minutes between any two time points in timePoints.

Constraints:

  • 22 \leq timePoints.length 2×104\leq 2 \times 10^4

  • timePoints[i] is in the format "HH:MM"
