Given a list of integers, write a program to identify the contiguous sub-list that has the largest sum and print the sum. Any non-empty slice of the list with step size 1 can be considered as a contiguous sub-list.
Input
The input will contain space-separated integers, denoting the elements of the list.
Output
The output should be an integer.
Explanation
For example, if the given list is [2, -4, 5, -1, 2, -3], then all the possible contiguous sub-lists will be,
[2]
[2, -4]
[2, -4, 5]
[2, -4, 5, -1]
[2, -4, 5, -1, 2]
[-4]
[-4, 5]
[-4, 5, -1]
[-4, 5, -1, 2]
[5]
[5, -1]
[5, -1, 2]
[-1]
[-1, 2]
[2]
Among the above contiguous sub-lists, the contiguous sub-list [5, -1, 2] has the largest sum which is 6.
Sample Input 1
2 -4 5 -1 2 -3
Sample Output 1
6
Sample Input 2
-2 -3 4 -1 -2 1 5 -3
Sample Output 2
7
def max_sum(arr):
rlt = arr[0]
n = len(arr)
for i in range(n):
for j in range(i,n):
if sum(arr[i:j]) > rlt:
rlt = sum(arr[i:j])
return rlt
#2 -4 5 -1 2 -3
l1 = []
n = int(input("Enter the length of the list: "))
print("Enter the element of the list:")
for i in range(n):
l1.append(int(input()))
print(max_sum(l1))
