Syntax error Maximum absolute difference of the length of strings from two arrays in JavaScript

Maximum absolute difference of the length of strings from two arrays in JavaScript

Problem

We are required to write a JavaScript function that takes in two arrays, a1 and a2 of strings. Each string is composed with letters from a to z. Let x be any string in the first array and y be any string in the second array.

Our function should find the value of −

max(abs(length(x) − length(y)))

Example

Following is the code −

const arr1 = ["hoqq", "bbllkw", "oox", "ejjuyyy", "plmiis", "xxxzgpsssa", "xxwwkktt", "znnnnfqknaz", "qqquuhii", "dvvvwz"];
const arr2 = ["cccooommaaqqoxii", "gggqaffhhh", "tttoowwwmmww"];
const findMaxAbsDiff = (arr1 = [], arr2 = []) => {
   if(arr1.length === 0 || arr2.length === 0){
      return -1;
   };
   let l1 = arr1.map(str => str.length)
   let l2 = arr2.map(str => str.length)
   return Math
   .max(Math.max(...l1) - Math.min(...l2), Math.max(...l2) - Math.min(...l1));
};
console.log(findMaxAbsDiff(arr1, arr2));
