Explore how to find the maximum number of consecutive ones in a binary array by efficiently tracking data. This lesson helps you understand and apply structured problem-solving approaches used in coding interviews to solve similar array challenges.
Statement
You are given a binary array nums (an array that contains only 0s and 1s). Your task is to find the maximum number of consecutive 1s in the array and return it.
Constraints
1≤nums.length≤103
nums[i] is either 0 or 1.
Examples
1/ 4
