longest subarray with 0 sum leetcode code example

Example 1: maximum subarray solution leetcode

def approach3(nums):
    ans = nums[0]
    subarr_sum = nums[0]

    for i in range(1, len(nums)):
        subarr_sum = max(nums[i], nums[i] + subarr_sum)
        ans = max(ans, subarr_sum)

    return ans

Example 2: find longest subarray by sum

def max_length(s, k):
    current = []
    max_len = -1 # returns -1 if there is no subsequence that adds up to k.
    for i in s:
        current.append(i)
        while sum(current) > k: # Shrink the array from the left, until the sum is <= k.
           current = current[1:]
        if sum(current) == k:
            max_len = max(max_len, len(current))

    return max_len
