Problem: Find Pivot Index

med
30 min
Explore how to identify the pivot index in an integer array where the sum of elements on the left equals the sum on the right. Understand the problem constraints and apply logical steps to solve the problem efficiently using programming.

Statement

Given an integer array nums, find the pivot index of the array.

The pivot index is defined as the index where the sum of all elements strictly to its left equals the sum of all elements strictly to its right. If the index lies on the left edge of the array, the left sum is considered 00 since no elements exist to its left. The same applies when the index lies on the right edge.

Return the leftmost pivot index. If no such index exists, return 1-1.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq nums.length 104\leq 10^4

  • 1000-1000 \leq nums[i] 1000\leq 1000
