Time Management Implementation to help Esther manage her time effectively

MinimumTimeDifference.js

const convertToMinutes = (time) => {

	let [hr,minute] = time.split(":");
	if( Number.parseInt(hr) > 23 || Number.parseInt(minute) > 59) return 0;

	return (  Number.parseInt(hr)*60)+ Number.parseInt(minute);
} 

const minimumTimeDifference = ( times ) =>{

	if(!Array.isArray(times) ) return 0;
	if( times.length == 0 ) return 0;

	for( let [index,time] of times.entries() ){
		times[index] = convertToMinutes(time);
	}
	
	times.sort( (a,b)=>a-b );

	if( times.length == 1 ) return times[0];
    	let timeDifference = Infinity;


	for(let i=0; i<times.length-1; i++){

	    if( times[i+1]-times[i] < timeDifference )
	    	timeDifference = times[i+1]-times[i];

	}
	return timeDifference;
}

minimumTimeDifference(["16:15","16:00","12:20"]); // sample input

Hello @meekg33k. Thanks for spotting this. I just discovered that a 2 pointer approach at both ends was perhaps an overthought to the solution. I have refactored that bit of the logic to do a (next-previous). I believe this should be more correct.

Thanks..
