    Find the Contiguous Subarray with Sum to a Given Value in an array

    Problem : Given an array of positive integer and given value X, find Contiguous sub array whose sum is equal to X. For example: [crayon-6729d2a2beeb5434308778/] Solution: Solution 1: Check all sub arrays and if current sum is equal to X, return. This will require two loops and if currentSum is greater than X tben try […]

    Find leaders in an array

    Problem: We need to print all the leaders present in the array. Element is the leader if it is greater than right side of elements. For example: [crayon-6729d2a2bf717643672870/] Solution: Solution 1: Use two loops. Outer loop to iterate over array elements and inner loop to check for right elements of the array. If current element […]
