Minimum Subarray with Required Sum Problem Statement

Given an array of positive integers ARR and an integer X, determine the minimum length subarray where the sum of its elements is strictly greater than X.

Note:

A subarray is a contiguous block of elements. If multiple subarrays qualify, return the earliest one. If no such subarray exists, return an empty line.

Example:

Input:
ARR = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], X = 11
Output:
4 5
Explanation:

Subarray [4, 5] has a sum of 9, which is the minimal subarray with a sum greater than 11.

Constraints:

  • 1 ≤ N ≤ 5 * 105
  • 1 ≤ X ≤ 109
  • 1 ≤ ARR[i] ≤ 109
  • Time Limit: 1 sec
