Sort $$$F$$$.

You have $$$f_1 ≤ f_2 ≤ f_3 ... ≤ f_n$$$. Our answer would be any one of the subarray of $$$F$$$ with $$$n - k$$$ elements.

You can use a multiset std::multiset<int32_t> in C++ to store the consecutive difference. Just insert and erase for the differences as you traverse. For every subarray, the answer would be the first element of the multiset as it is sorted by default. You can do *multiset.begin() to get the answer.
