209. Minimum Size Subarray Sum

Given an array of n positive integers and a positive integer s, find the minimal length of a contiguous 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 under the problem constraint.

    def minSubArrayLen(self, s, nums):
        """
        :type s: int
        :type nums: List[int]
        :rtype: int
        """
        min_len = float('inf')
        sum = 0
        slow = 0
        fast = 0
        while fast < len(nums):
            sum += nums[fast]
            fast += 1
            while sum >= s:
                min_len = min(min_len, fast - slow)
                sum -= nums[slow]
                slow += 1
        return 0 if min_len == float('inf') else min_len
