Maximize count of non-overlapping subarrays with sum K

Given an array arr[] and an integer K, the task is to print the maximum number of non-overlapping subarrays with a sum equal to K.

Examples:

Input: arr[] = {-2, 6, 6, 3, 5, 4, 1, 2, 8}, K = 10
Output: 3
Explanation: All possible non-overlapping subarrays with sum K(= 10) are {-2, 6, 6}, {5, 4, 1}, {2, 8}. Therefore, the required count is 3.

Input: arr[] = {1, 1, 1}, K = 2
Output: 1

Approach: The problem can be solved using the concept of prefix sum. Follow the below steps to solve the problem:

  1. Initialize a set to store all the prefix sums obtained up to the current element.
  2. Initialize variables prefixSum and res, to store the prefix sum of the current subarray and the count of subarrays with a sum equal to K respectively.
  3. Iterate over the array and for each array element, update prefixSum by adding to it the current element. Now, check if the value prefixSum - K is already present in the set or not. If found to be true, increment res, clear the set, and reset the value of prefixSum.
  4. Repeat the above steps until the entire array is traversed. Finally, print the value of res.
