Fixed the error in the MaxProductOfThree by initializing the max and min variables to null instead of -1. The checks were then altered to check for null instead of -1.

Also wrote more tests, which randomly generated small arrays and compared the output of the maxProductOfThree-algorithm to the output of a slower, but complete, function which calculates all posible triple-products of the values of the array.

Fixes: #1294
