Array Summed When Equal | Dataford Interview Questions

Providence India analytics utilities may need to identify contiguous sequences of measurements whose combined value reaches a specified threshold. Given an integer array and a target integer, return the number of non-empty contiguous subarrays whose elements sum exactly to the target.

Formal Specification

Implement subarray_sum_count(nums, target). The input nums is a list of integers and target is an integer. Return an integer representing the count of contiguous, non-empty subarrays with sum equal to target. A subarray must contain consecutive elements, and different index ranges count separately even when their values are identical.

Constraints

1 <= len(nums) <= 2 * 10^5
-10^4 <= nums[i] <= 10^4
-10^9 <= target <= 10^9
The answer may be as large as O(n^2), so use an integer type that supports large values.

Function Signature
