Given a sorted array arr[], and a set Q having M queries, where each query has values X and Y, the task is to find the sum of all integers less than X and greater than Y present in the array. Note: X and Y may or may not be present in the array. 

Examples:

Input: arr[] = [3 5 8 12 15], Q = {{5, 12}, {4, 8}} 
Output: 18 30 
Explanation: For query 1, X = 5 and Y = 12. Sum = 3( < 5) + 15( > 12) = 18. For query 2, X = 4 and Y = 8. Sum = 3( < 4) + 15 ( > 8) + 12 ( > 8) = 30. 

Input: arr[] = [4 7 7 12 15], Q = {{3, 8}, {4, 8}} 
Output: 27 27 
Explanation: For query 1, X = 3 and Y = 8. Sum = 12( > 8) + 15 ( > 8) = 27. For query 2, Sum = 12 + 15 = 27.

Approach:

  1. Build a prefix sum array where prefix_sum[i] denotes the sum of arr[0] + arr[1] + … arr[i].
  2. Find the last index i which has a value less than X and extract the prefix sum up to the ith index. The index can be obtained in O(logN) complexity by using bisect_left() or lower_bound() in Python and C++ respectively..
  3. Similarly, find the first index i in the array with a value greater than Y and calculate the sum prefix_sum[n-1] – prefix_sum[i-1]. Inbuilt functions bisect() and upper_bound() in Python and C++ respectively, perform the required operation in O(logN).
  4. Sum of the two results calculated in the above two steps is the required answer. Keep repeating these steps for every query.

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++




#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
int* createPrefixSum(int ar[], int n) {
    // Initialize prefix sum array
    int* prefix_sum = new int[n];
 
    // Initialize prefix_sum[0] by ar[0]
    prefix_sum[0] = ar[0];
 
    // Compute prefix sum for all indices
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        prefix_sum[i] = prefix_sum[i-1] + ar[i];
    }
 
    return prefix_sum;
}
 
int sumLessThanX(int ar[], int x, int prefix_sum[], int n) {
    // Index of the last element which is less than x
    int i = 0;
    while (i < n && ar[i] < x) {
        i++;
    }
 
    // If no element is less than x
    if (i == n) {
        return 0;
    }
 
    return prefix_sum[i-1];
}
 
int sumGreaterThanY(int ar[], int y, int prefix_sum[], int n) {
    // Index of the first element which is greater than y
    int i = n-1;
    while (i >= 0 && y < ar[i]) {
        i--;
    }
 
    // If no element is greater than y
    if (i < 0) {
        return 0;
    }
 
    return prefix_sum[n-1] - prefix_sum[i];
}
 
void solve(int ar[], int x, int y, int prefix_sum[], int n) {
    int ltx = sumLessThanX(ar, x, prefix_sum, n);
    int gty = sumGreaterThanY(ar, y, prefix_sum, n);
 
    // printing the final sum
    cout << ltx + gty << endl;
}
 
void print_l(int lb, int ub) {
    cout << "sum of integers less than " << lb << " and greater than " << ub << " is ";
}
 
int main() {
    // example 1
    int ar[] = {3, 6, 6, 12, 15};
    int n = sizeof(ar) / sizeof(ar[0]);
    int* prefix_sum = createPrefixSum(ar, n);
 
    // for query 1
    int q1x = 5;
    int q1y = 12;
    print_l(q1x, q1y);
    solve(ar, q1x, q1y, prefix_sum, n);
 
    // for query 2
    int q2x = 7;
    int q2y = 8;
    print_l(q2x, q2y);
    solve(ar, q2x, q2y, prefix_sum, n);
 
    return 0;
}
