Maximal Subarray Sum : O(n) scan-and-update dynamic programming,https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_subarray_problem, https://leetcode.com/problems/maximum-subarray

Shortest Subarray Sum Equals K : prefix-sum + sort + hash-table: O(nlogn) time, O(n) storage; https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-size-subarray-sum/

      if it‘s positive only, sliding window can also work.
