Today I have done leetcode's February LeetCoding Challenge with cpp.

February LeetCoding Challenge 4

Description

Maximum Ascending Subarray Sum

Given an array of positive integers nums, return the maximum possible sum of an ascending subarray in nums.

A subarray is defined as a contiguous sequence of numbers in an array.

A subarray [numsl, numsl+1, ..., numsr-1, numsr] is ascending if for all i where l <= i < r, numsi < numsi+1. Note that a subarray of size 1 is ascending.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [10,20,30,5,10,50]
Output: 65
Explanation: [5,10,50] is the ascending subarray with the maximum sum of 65.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [10,20,30,40,50]
Output: 150
Explanation: [10,20,30,40,50] is the ascending subarray with the maximum sum of 150.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [12,17,15,13,10,11,12]
Output: 33
Explanation: [10,11,12] is the ascending subarray with the maximum sum of 33.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 100
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 100

Solution

class Solution {
public:
  int maxAscendingSum(vector<int>& nums) {
    int answer = 0;
    int sum = 0;
    int current = nums.front();
    for(auto n : nums) {
      if(n <= current) {
        sum = 0;
      }
      current = n;
      sum += n;
      answer = max(sum, answer);
    }
    return answer;
  }
};
