Suppose we have an integer array A. We have to find the contiguous subarrays which length will be at least one, and that has the largest sum, and also return its sum. So if the array A is like A = [-2,1,-3,4,-1,2,1,-5,4], then the sum will be 6. And the subarray will be [4, -1, 2, 1]
To solve this we will try to use the Dynamic programming approach.
Let us see the following implementation to get a better understanding −
class Solution(object): def maxSubArray(self, nums): """ :type nums: List[int] :rtype: int """ dp = [0 for i in range(len(nums))] dp[0] = nums[0] for i in range(1,len(nums)): dp[i] = max(dp[i-1]+nums[i],nums[i]) #print(dp) return max(dp) nums = [-2,1,-3,7,-2,2,1,-5,4] ob1 = Solution() print(ob1.maxSubArray(nums))
nums = [-2,1,-3,7,-2,2,1,-5,4]
