@Dave
yes u r right that integers means it can be big integers too.
generally when we talk about integers, they are 32 bit integers in
Programing/Algorithm Questions
so i was assuming that here

and about my solution - yes it will be O(nlgn) or O(nw) not acceptable for
given Q :(

and yes a Divide and Conquer solution can do it in O(n). I just came to know
..thanks
i little bit similer to my approach............Nice One
