Highest Product of 3 (Practice Interview Question)

But it doesn't have to end here! Sign up for the 7-day coding interview crash course and you'll get a free Interview Cake problem every week.

You're in!

Given an array of integers, find the highest product you can get from three of the integers.

The input arrayOfInts will always have at least three integers.

We can do this in time and space.
