This is a leetCode problem: http://www.programcreek.com/2014/05/leetcode-minimum-size-subarray-sum-java/
Given an array of n positive integers and a positive integer s, find the minimal length of a subarray of which the sum ≥ s. If there isn't one, return 0 instead.
For example, given the array [2,3,1,2,4,3] and s = 7, the subarray [4,3] has the minimal length of 2 under the problem constraint.
We can solve this by a sliding window, aka inch worm algorithm. Essentially we grow this sliding window to the right if the sum is smaller than the s, once sum >= s, then we update the minimal length of the window and then start to shrink the window from the left until sum < s. Here is the code:
