# 1480. Running Sum of 1d Array
### Easy
Link: https://leetcode.com/problems/running-sum-of-1d-array/description/
Given an array nums. We define a running sum of an array as runningSum[i] = sum(nums[0]…nums[i]).
Return the running sum of nums.
Example 1:
> Input: nums = [1,2,3,4]
> Output: [1,3,6,10]
> Explanation: Running sum is obtained as follows: [1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4].
Example 2:
> Input: nums = [1,1,1,1,1]
> Output: [1,2,3,4,5]
> Explanation: Running sum is obtained as follows: [1, 1+1, 1+1+1, 1+1+1+1, 1+1+1+1+1].
Example 3:
> Input: nums = [3,1,2,10,1]
> Output: [3,4,6,16,17]
Constraints:
1 <= nums.length <= 1000
-10^6 <= nums[i] <= 10^6
## Solution-1
Time complexity: O(n*n)
```java
class Solution {
public int[] runningSum(int[] nums) {
int[] results = new int[nums.length];
for(int i = 0; i < results.length; i++) {
int sum = 0;
for(int j = 0; j <= i; j++){
sum = sum + nums[j];
}
results[i] = sum;
}
return results;
}
}
```
This is my first solution.
Although I solve it, it is brute force solotion.
I use for loop twice to calculate the sum of the nums array.
## Solution-2
Time complexity: O(n)
Evolve from brute force to optimal​. The better solution is adding the value of previous index in array.
```java
class Solution {
public int[] runningSum(int[] nums) {
for(int i = 1; i < nums.length; i++) {
nums[i] += nums[i - 1];
}
return nums;
}
}
```
