303. Range Sum Query - Immutable

Description

Difficulty: Easy

Related Topics: Array, Design, Prefix Sum

Given an integer array nums, handle multiple queries of the following type:

  1. Calculate the sum of the elements of nums between indices left and right inclusive where left <= right.

Implement the NumArray class:

  • NumArray(int[] nums) Initializes the object with the integer array nums.
  • int sumRange(int left, int right) Returns the sum of the elements of nums between indices left and right inclusive (i.e. nums[left] + nums[left + 1] + ... + nums[right]).

Example 1:

Input
["NumArray", "sumRange", "sumRange", "sumRange"]
[[[-2, 0, 3, -5, 2, -1]], [0, 2], [2, 5], [0, 5]]
Output
[null, 1, -1, -3]

Explanation
NumArray numArray = new NumArray([-2, 0, 3, -5, 2, -1]);
numArray.sumRange(0, 2); // return (-2) + 0 + 3 = 1
numArray.sumRange(2, 5); // return 3 + (-5) + 2 + (-1) = -1
numArray.sumRange(0, 5); // return (-2) + 0 + 3 + (-5) + 2 + (-1) = -3

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 104
  • -105 <= nums[i] <= 105
  • 0 <= left <= right < nums.length
  • At most 104 calls will be made to sumRange.
