Problem

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.

My Solution

class Solution {
    public int maxSubArray(int[] nums) {
        int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE, sum =0;
        for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; ++i) {
            sum = 0;
            for (int j = i; j < nums.length; ++j) {
                if (sum < 0) {
                    break;
                } else {
                    sum += nums[j];                    
                }
                if (sum > max) {
                    max = sum;
                }
            }  
        }
        return max;
    }
}

Great Solution

public int maxSubArray(int[] nums) {
    int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE, sum = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < nums.length; i++) {
        if (sum < 0) 
            sum = nums[i];
        else 
            sum += nums[i];
        if (sum > max)
            max = sum;
    }
    return max;
}
