Number of Subarrays with positive product

Difficulty Level : Medium
Last Updated : 03 May, 2021

Given an array arr[] of N integers, the task is to find the count of subarrays with positive product.
Examples:

Input: arr[] = {-1, 2, -2}
Output: 2
Subarrays with positive product are {2} and {-1, 2, -2}.
Input: arr[] = {5, -4, -3, 2, -5}
Output: 7

Approach: The approach to find the subarrays with negative product has been discussed in this article. If cntNeg is the count of negative product subarrays and total is the count of all possible subarrays of the given array then the count of positive product subarrays will be cntPos = total – cntNeg.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the count of
// subarrays with negative product
int negProdSubArr(int arr[], int n)
{
    int positive = 1, negative = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
 
        // Replace current element with 1
        // if it is positive else replace
        // it with -1 instead
        if (arr[i] > 0)
            arr[i] = 1;
        else
            arr[i] = -1;
 
        // Take product with previous element
        // to form the prefix product
        if (i > 0)
            arr[i] *= arr[i - 1];
 
        // Count positive and negative elements
        // in the prefix product array
        if (arr[i] == 1)
            positive++;
        else
            negative++;
    }
 
    // Return the required count of subarrays
    return (positive * negative);
}
 
// Function to return the count of
// subarrays with positive product
int posProdSubArr(int arr[], int n)
{
 
    // Total subarrays possible
    int total = (n * (n + 1)) / 2;
 
    // Count to subarrays with negative product
    int cntNeg = negProdSubArr(arr, n);
 
    // Return the count of subarrays
    // with positive product
    return (total - cntNeg);
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 5, -4, -3, 2, -5 };
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);
 
    cout << posProdSubArr(arr, n);
 
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java implementation of the approach
class GFG
{
     
// Function to return the count of
// subarrays with negative product
static int negProdSubArr(int arr[], int n)
{
    int positive = 1, negative = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
 
        // Replace current element with 1
        // if it is positive else replace
        // it with -1 instead
        if (arr[i] > 0)
            arr[i] = 1;
        else
            arr[i] = -1;
 
        // Take product with previous element
        // to form the prefix product
        if (i > 0)
            arr[i] *= arr[i - 1];
 
        // Count positive and negative elements
        // in the prefix product array
        if (arr[i] == 1)
            positive++;
        else
            negative++;
    }
 
    // Return the required count of subarrays
    return (positive * negative);
}
 
// Function to return the count of
// subarrays with positive product
static int posProdSubArr(int arr[], int n)
{
 
    // Total subarrays possible
    int total = (n * (n + 1)) / 2;
 
    // Count to subarrays with negative product
    int cntNeg = negProdSubArr(arr, n);
 
    // Return the count of subarrays
    // with positive product
    return (total - cntNeg);
}
 
// Driver code
public static void main (String[] args)
{
    int arr[] = { 5, -4, -3, 2, -5 };
    int n = arr.length;
 
    System.out.println(posProdSubArr(arr, n));
