Balanced Lineup
For the daily milking, Farmer John’s N cows (1 ≤ N ≤ 50,000) always line up in the same order. One day Farmer John decides to organize a game of Ultimate Frisbee with some of the cows. To keep things simple, he will take a contiguous range of cows from the milking lineup to play the game. However, for all the cows to have fun they should not differ too much in height.
Farmer John has made a list of Q (1 ≤ Q ≤ 200,000) potential groups of cows and their heights (1 ≤ height ≤ 1,000,000). For each group, he wants your help to determine the difference in height between the shortest and the tallest cow in the group.
Input
Line 1: Two space-separated integers, N and Q.
Lines 2… N+1: Line i+1 contains a single integer that is the height of cow i
Lines N+2… N+ Q+1: Two integers A and B (1 ≤ A ≤ B ≤ N), representing the range of cows from A to B inclusive.
Output
Lines 1… Q: Each line contains a single integer that is a response to a reply and indicates the difference in height between the tallest and shortest cow in the range.

题意:
给出n个奶牛和m次查询,n个奶牛的高度,查询[a,b]最大值-最小值
思路:
此题数据量非常大,简单的模拟必然会超时,线段树是个不错的选择,两个线段树分别查找最大值和最小值(不需要懒惰标记,蛮简单的)。
