Maximum Subarray Sum

Given an array of numbers, find the maximum sum of any contiguous subarray of the array.

For example, given the array [34, -50, 42, 14, -5, 86], the maximum sum would be 137, since we would take elements 42, 14, -5, and 86.

Given the array [-5, -1, -8, -9], the maximum sum would be -1.

Follow up: Do this in O(N) time.

Input Format:

The first line of input contains size of array, which is denoted by N and second line of input contains N space separated integers.

Output Format:

The first and only line of output should print the maximum subarray sum, as described in the description.

1. I explained the Naive approach which was taking 2 loops and considering every subarray once. It was an O(N^2 ) approach.
2. I optimised my approach to one loop making it O(N), by applying kadane alg...read more

Brute Force Approach
  1. Create a nested loop. The outer loop will go from i = 0 to i = n - k. This will cover the starting indices of all k-subarrays
  2. The inner loop will go from j = i to j = i + k - 1. Thi...read more

BST Approach
  1. Create a BST and insert the first k elements in it
  2. Print the largest element in the tree
  3. Now iterate through the remaining elements of the tree:
    1. Insert the current element in the BST
    2. Delete th...read more

Deque Approach
  1. Create a double ended queue. Note that the deque will store the indices of the elements, not the elements themselves
  2. Insert the first k elements (the first subarray) in the deque. While i...read more

To solve the problem of finding the maximum sum of any contiguous subarray of an array in O(N) time, we can use Kadane's Algorithm. This algorithm works by iterating through the array and at each step...read more
