Visual learners this is for you!

Challenge:

You are given an array of integers which represent the price of a stock on a given day.

Return the MAXIMUM PROFIT you can achieve from this selling transaction.

In this video I'm going to show you the different approaches to tackle this problem, starting with a basic brute force approach, then switching to something a bit more optimized using some intuition that we gather from some visuals.

Let me know what you think!
