[lintcode easy]Maximum Subarray

Maximum Subarray

Given an array of integers, find a contiguous subarray which has the largest sum.

 

Example

Given the array [−2,2,−3,4,−1,2,1,−5,3], the contiguous subarray [4,−1,2,1] has the largest sum = 6.

Note

The subarray should contain at least one number.

Challenge

Can you do it in time complexity O(n)?
