A manager in a packet filling line is complaining that their machine is not functioning correctly. The machine weighs a group of packets at once and attempts to get 25 packets into a box.

Given a list of <code>stock_prices</code> in ascending order by <code>datetime</code>, and their respective dates in list <code>dts</code>, write a function <code>max_profit</code> that outputs the max profit by buying and selling at a specific interval and start and end dates to buy and sell for max profit.

Example:

Input:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>stock_prices = [10,5,20,32,25,12]
dts = [
 &#39;2019-01-01&#39;, 
 &#39;2019-01-02&#39;,
 &#39;2019-01-03&#39;,
 &#39;2019-01-04&#39;,
 &#39;2019-01-05&#39;,
 &#39;2019-01-06&#39;,
]

def max_profit(stock_prices,dts) -&gt; 27
</code></pre>

Output:

<pre tabindex="0" class="chroma"><code>def max_profit(stock_prices, dts) -&gt; 
(27, &#39;2019-01-02&#39;, &#39;2019-01-04&#39;)
</code></pre>
