Minimum Absolute Difference in an Array

// Complete the minimumAbsoluteDifference function below.
function minimumAbsoluteDifference(arr) {

    let min_difference = Number.MAX_VALUE;
    // sorts the given array in an ascending order
    arr.sort((a,b) => a-b);

        if (min_difference == 0)
            return 0;
