Today, we will solve the 3rd problem of the May LeetCoding Challenge 2021.
Problem Statement
Given an array nums. We define a running sum of an array as runningSum[i] = sum(nums[0]…nums[i]).
Return the running sum of nums.
Example 1:
**Input:** nums = [1,2,3,4]
**Output:** [1,3,6,10]
**Explanation:** Running sum is obtained as follows: [1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4].
Example 2:
**Input:** nums = [1,1,1,1,1]
**Output:** [1,2,3,4,5]
**Explanation:** Running sum is obtained as follows: [1, 1+1, 1+1+1, 1+1+1+1, 1+1+1+1+1].
Example 3:
**Input:** nums = [3,1,2,10,1]
**Output:** [3,4,6,16,17]
Solution
This is a pretty easy problem. Here we have to find the running sum of an array. That means, for index i we have to find the sum of all elements from 0 to i-1 . It can be done by using sum variable to store the summation of each element index by index.
The code is given below.
Time complexity: O(n)
Space complexity: O(n)
where n is the size of the array

LeetCode
I have been solving Leetcode problems for around a year or so. Suddenly I have developed a passion of writing tutorials for these problems. I am starting with Leetcode problem, in future I will try to make tutorials on Spring,Android,Java,Algorithms and many more.
