Maximum length L such that the sum of all subarrays of length L is less than K

Given an array of length N and an integer K. The task is to find the maximum length L such that all the subarrays of length L have sum of its elements less than K.
Examples: 

Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, K = 20 
Output:
The only subarray of length 5 is the complete 
array and (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) = 15 < 20.



Input: arr[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, K = 10 
Output:

Approach: For the maximum sum of a subarray of length K, go through the approach discussed in this article. Now, a binary search can be performed to find the maximum length. As the array elements are positive then increasing the subarray length will increase the maximum sum of the subarray elements for that length.



Below is the implementation of the above approach: 




// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the maximum sum
// in a subarray of size k
int maxSum(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
    // k must be greater
    if (n < k) {
        return -1;
    }
 
    // Compute sum of first window of size k
    int res = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < k; i++)
        res += arr[i];
 
    // Compute sums of remaining windows by
    // removing first element of previous
    // window and adding last element of
    // current window.
    int curr_sum = res;
    for (int i = k; i < n; i++) {
        curr_sum += arr[i] - arr[i - k];
        res = max(res, curr_sum);
    }
 
    return res;
}
 
// Function to return the length of subarray
// Sum of all the subarray of this
// length is less than or equal to K
int solve(int arr[], int n, int k)
{
    int max_len = 0, l = 0, r = n, m;
 
    // Binary search from l to r as all the
    // array elements are positive so that
    // the maximum subarray sum is monotonically
    // increasing
    while (l <= r) {
        m = (l + r) / 2;
 
        // Check if the subarray sum is
        // greater than K or not
        if (maxSum(arr, n, m) > k)
            r = m - 1;
        else {
            l = m + 1;
 
            // Update the maximum length
            max_len = m;
        }
    }
    return max_len;
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(int);
    int k = 10;
 
    cout << solve(arr, n, k);
 
    return 0;
}

Time Complexity: O(N*logN), as we are using binary search which will cost logN and in each traversal, we are calling the function maxSum which will cost O(N) time. Where N is the number of elements in the array.
Auxiliary Space: O(1), as we are not using any extra space.
