- Create a 2D array of size 14x14 having same values ranging from 0 to 255 in each row. You are free to specify the values of this array.

The test cases are generated so that the answer will fit in a 32-bit integer. A subarray is a contiguous subsequence of the array. Example 1: Input: nums = [2,3,-2,4] Output: 6 Explanation: [2,3] has the largest product 6. Example 2: Input: nums = [-2,0,-1] Output: 0 Explanation: The result cannot be 2, because [-2,-1] is not a subarray. Constraints: 1 <= nums.length <= 2 * 104 -10 <= nums[i] <= 10 The product of any prefix or suffix of nums is guaranteed to fit in a 32-bit integer.arrow_forward
