152. Maximum Product Subarray

Hazrat Ali

Leetcode

Given an integer array nums, find a  that has the largest product, and return the product.

The test cases are generated so that the answer will fit in a 32-bit integer.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [2,3,-2,4]
Output: 6
Explanation: [2,3] has the largest product 6.

Example 2:

Input: nums = [-2,0,-1]
Output: 0
Explanation: The result cannot be 2, because [-2,-1] is not a subarray.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 2 * 104
  • -10 <= nums[i] <= 10
  • The product of any subarray of nums is guaranteed to fit in a 32-bit integer.

 

Solution : 

/**
 * @param {number[]} nums
 * @return {number}
 */
const maxProduct = nums => {
  let res = nums[0];
  let min = nums[0];
  let max = nums[0];

  for (let i = 1; i < nums.length; i++) {
    if (nums[i] > 0) {
      max = Math.max(nums[i], max * nums[i]);
      min = Math.min(nums[i], min * nums[i]);
    } else {
      const tmp = max;
      max = Math.max(nums[i], min * nums[i]);
      min = Math.min(nums[i], tmp * nums[i]);
    }

    res = Math.max(res, max);
  }

  return res;
};
