Solution: Continuous Subarray Sum

Understand how to use hash maps and cumulative sums to determine if a continuous subarray's sum is divisible by a given integer k. This lesson guides you through the algorithm steps, including tracking remainders and validating subarray length, to efficiently solve this coding challenge with optimal time and space complexity.

Statement

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, determine if nums contains a good subarray. Return true if such a subarray exists; otherwise, return false.

A subarray of nums is considered good if:

  • Its length is at least 22.

  • The sum of its elements is a multiple of k.

Notes:

  • A subarray is defined as a contiguous sequence of elements within an array.

  • An integer x is a multiple of k if there exists an integer n such that x = n * k. Note that 0 is always considered a multiple of k.
