Rahul And Minimum Subarray Problem Statement

Rahul is mastering arrays. He is tasked to find the length of the smallest contiguous subarray in a given array/list ARR of size N, such that its sum exceeds a specified value. Return 0 if no such subarray exists.

Input:

The first line contains a single integer ‘T’ representing the number of test cases. The first line of each test case will contain two integers ‘N’ and ‘X’ that denote the size of the ‘ARR’ and the given value respectively. The second line of each test case contains ‘N’ space-separated integers, these are the elements of ‘ARR’.

Output:

For each test case, output an integer indicating the length of the smallest subarray whose sum is greater than ‘X’. Each test case's output should appear on a new line.

Example:

Given ARR = [1, 2, 21, 7, 6, 12] and X = 23, the smallest subarray's length is 2, as the subarray is [21, 7].

Constraints:

  • 1 <= T <= 10^2
  • 1 <= N <= 10^3
  • 1 <= X <= 10^9
  • 0 <= A[i] <= 10^9

Note:

You don’t need to print anything as it is handled automatically.
