Question: A contiguous subsequence of a list S is a subsequence made up of consecutive elements of S. For instance, if S is 5, 15, -30,

A contiguous subsequence of a list S is a subsequence made up of consecutive elements of S. For instance, if S is 5, 15, -30, 10, -5, 40, 10, then 15, -30, 10 is a contiguous subsequence but 5, 15, 40 is not. Give a linear-time algorithm for the following task: Input: A list of numbers, a_1, a_2, ..., a_n. Output: The contiguous subsequence of maximum sum (a subsequence of length zero has sum zero). For the preceding example, the answer would be 10, -5, 40, 10, with a sum of 55
