Leetcode: Maximum Subarray in C++



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.
More practice:


If you have figured out the O(n) solution, try coding another solution using the divide and conquer approach, which is more subtle.

Solution:
int maxSubArray(int A[], int n) {
        int cur = 0;
        int max = INT_MIN;
        for(int i=0;i<n;i++)
        {
            if(cur>=0)
            {
                cur+=A[i];
            }
            else
                cur = A[i];
            if(cur>max)
            max = cur;
        }
        return max;
    }
