The objective is to implement a function that will return all pairs of integers from a given array of integers that have a difference of 2. The result array should be sorted in ascending order of values.
Assume there are no duplicate integers in the array. The order of the integers in the input array should not matter.
Examples
[1, 2, 3, 4] --> [[1, 3], [2, 4]] [4, 1, 2, 3] --> [[1, 3], [2, 4]] [1, 23, 3, 4, 7] --> [[1, 3]] [4, 3, 1, 5, 6] --> [[1, 3], [3, 5], [4, 6]]
Tests
pairDifference([1,2,3,4])
pairDifference([1,3,4,6])

Python solution
Whoa, that reads almost as if it were English!
Thanks!
C++ solution
Something like this should do it in JavaScript. I'm not entirely sure if this sort is okay, though. I can never remember which way it's ascendent and which descendent.
This really is Savage
