standard output
You are given an array ?
consisting of ?
integer numbers.
Let instability of the array be the following value: max?=1???−min?=1???.
You have to remove exactly one element from this array to minimize instability of the resulting (?−1)-elements array. Your task is to calculate the minimum possible instability.
Input
The first line of the input contains one integer ?
(2≤?≤105) — the number of elements in the array ?
.
The second line of the input contains ?
integers ?1,?2,…,?? (1≤??≤105) — elements of the array ?
.
Output
Print one integer — the minimum possible instability of the array if you have to remove exactly one element from the array ?
.

0
Note
In the first example you can remove 7
then instability of the remaining array will be 3−1=2
.
In the second example you can remove either 1
or 100000 then instability of the remaining array will be 100000−100000=0 and 1−1=0
correspondingly.
