<p>You are given an integer array <code>values</code> where values[i] represents the value of the <code>i<sup>th</sup></code> sightseeing spot. Two sightseeing spots <code>i</code> and <code>j</code> have a <strong>distance</strong> <code>j - i</code> between them.</p>

<p>The score of a pair (<code>i &lt; j</code>) of sightseeing spots is <code>values[i] + values[j] + i - j</code>: the sum of the values of the sightseeing spots, minus the distance between them.</p>

<p>Return <em>the maximum score of a pair of sightseeing spots</em>.</p>
