LeetCode [53. Maximum Subarray]

Problem：53. Maximum Subarray

Question

Find the contiguous subarray within an array (containing at least one number) which has the largest sum.

For example, given the array [-2,1,-3,4,-1,2,1,-5,4],
the contiguous subarray [4,-1,2,1] has the largest sum = 6.

思路

1. 动态规划
   状态方程： sum(i) = max{ sum(i-1)+a(i), a(i) }
   sum(i)是以i结尾和最大的连续子序列，a(i)是数组的第i个值
2. 从第一个数开始，往后一直累加，如果累加的和小于0，则重新从下一个位置开始累加，不断更新最大值。

代码

class Solution {
public:
    int maxSubArray(vector<int>& nums) {
        int largest = nums[0];
        vector<int> dp;
        dp.push_back(nums[0]);
        for (int i = 1; i < nums.size(); i++) {
            dp.push_back(nums[i]+dp[i-1] > nums[i] ? nums[i] + dp[i - 1] : nums[i]);
            largest = largest > dp[i] ? largest : dp[i];
        }

        return largest;
    }
};

比较直接简单的代码

class Solution {
public:
    int maxSubArray(vector<int>& nums) {
        int cursum = 0;
        int ans = nums[0];
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.size(); i++) {
            cursum += nums[i];
            ans = max(cursum, ans);
            cursum = max(cursum, 0);
        }
        return ans;
    }
};
