Description


You are given an array of positive integers nums and want to erase a subarray containingΒ unique elements. The score you get by erasing the subarray is equal to the sum of its elements.

Return the maximum score you can get by erasing exactly one subarray.

An array b is called to be a subarray of a if it forms a contiguous subsequence of a, that is, if it is equal to a[l],a[l+1],...,a[r] for some (l,r).

Β 

Example 1:

Input: nums = [4,2,4,5,6]
Output: 17
Explanation: The optimal subarray here is [2,4,5,6].

Example 2:

Input: nums = [5,2,1,2,5,2,1,2,5]
Output: 8
Explanation: The optimal subarray here is [5,2,1] or [1,2,5].

Β 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 105
  • 1 <= nums[i] <= 104

Solution


Python3

class Solution:
    def maximumUniqueSubarray(self, nums: List[int]) -> int:
        s = set()
        i = total = res = 0
        
        for j, x in enumerate(nums):
            while x in s:
                total -= nums[i]
                s.remove(nums[i])
                i += 1
                
            total += x
            s.add(x)
            res = max(res, total)
        
        return res
