Count subarrays having sum of elements at even and odd positions equal

Given an array arr[] of integers, the task is to find the total count of subarrays such that the sum of elements at even position and sum of elements at the odd positions are equal.

Examples:



Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 1}
Output: 1
Explanation: 
{3, 4, 1} is the only subarray in which sum of elements at even position {3, 1} = sum of element at odd position {4}

Input: arr[] = {2, 4, 6, 4, 2}
Output: 2
Explanation: 
There are two subarrays {2, 4, 6, 4} and {4, 6, 4, 2}.



 

Approach: The idea is to generate all possible subarrays. For each subarray formed find the sum of the elements at even index and subtract the elements at odd index. If the sum is 0, count this subarray else check for the next subarray.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:




// C program for the above approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
  
// Function to count subarrays in
// which sum of elements at even
// and odd positions are equal
void countSubarrays(int arr[], int n)
{
      
    // Initialize variables
    int count = 0;
  
    // Iterate over the array
    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
        int sum = 0;
  
        for(int j = i; j < n; j++)
        {
              
            // Check if position is
            // even then add to sum
            // then add it to sum
            if ((j - i) % 2 == 0)
                sum += arr[j];
  
            // Else subtract it to sum
            else
                sum -= arr[j];
  
            // Increment the count
            // if the sum equals 0
            if (sum == 0)
                count++;
        }
    }
  
    // Print the count of subarrays
    cout << " " << count ;
}
  
// Driver Code
int main()
{
      
    // Given array arr[]
    int arr[] = { 2, 4, 6, 4, 2 };
  
    // Size of the array
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
  
    // Function call
    countSubarrays(arr, n);
    return 0;
}
