Minimum Moves to Equal Array Elements II: coding question

Available question text

Given an integer array, find the minimum number of ±1 moves needed to make all elements equal — equivalently, choose a target value that minimizes the sum of absolute deviations. This is an L1-minimization problem whose optimal target is any median, so the answer is the sum of |nums[i] − median|.
