Problem Description

Given an integer array nums of size n, return the minimum number of moves required to make all array elements equal.

In one move, you can increment n - 1 elements of the array by 1.

Solution

/**
 * @param {number[]} nums
 * @return {number}
 */
var minMoves = function(nums) {
  const min = Math.min(...nums);
  return nums.reduce((sum, num) => sum + num - min, 0);
};
