Lua translation!

it's easier than you think.
Hint: Don't try to double loop it.

@Jeki00 god knows xd try to optimize tho

Warning: With enough thinking anyone can come up with a solution without knowing any specific algorithm.

I did O(n^2) and got timed out. what's wrong with mine?

Hello, for C language i think negative numbers test case is wrong. Im supposed to return 0 when there are only negative numbers in the test. Please fix that so i can go next kata.

The wording of the kata is a little off, I'd suggest getting a native English speaker to proofread it

Interesting task. At first it looks very simple, then it looks too complicated. In the end it is solved quite simply, but it makes you think.

Such an amazing kata, I had a solution that worked everywhere but it was extremely slow, took me a long time but I figured out how to make it run much faster

If you're looking for the version where O(n) is expected, it's this kata.

The solution i made is a worst-case-scenario O(n^2), but it uses an optimization.

I removed the optimizations, making it a flat O(n^2). It didn't time out, apparently.

Take a couple elements in a row. Say, from the 2nd to the 4th, [1, -3, 4]. Sum them, and you get 2.

Find the largest such sum, and output it.

Will a simple O(n^2) pass?
