523. Continuous Subarray Sum 👍

Problem

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, return true if nums has a good subarray or false otherwise.

A good subarray is a subarray where:

  • its length is at least two, and
  • the sum of the elements of the subarray is a multiple of k.

Note that:

  • A subarray is a contiguous part of the array.
  • An integer x is a multiple of k if there exists an integer n such that x = n * k. 0 is always a multiple of k.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [23,2,4,6,7], k = 6
Output: true
Explanation: [2, 4] is a continuous subarray of size 2 whose elements sum up to 6.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [23,2,6,4,7], k = 6
Output: true
Explanation: [23, 2, 6, 4, 7] is an continuous subarray of size 5 whose elements sum up to 42.
42 is a multiple of 6 because 42 = 7 * 6 and 7 is an integer.

Example 3:

Input: nums = [23,2,6,4,7], k = 13
Output: false

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 105
  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 109
  • 0 <= sum(nums[i]) <= 231 - 1
  • 1 <= k <= 231 - 1
