## sliding windows

time: O(n)

space: O(1)

first try like this:

```java
class Solution {
    public int dietPlanPerformance(int[] calories, int k, int lower, int upper) {
        int points = 0;
        int sum = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < k; i++) {
            sum += calories[i];
        }
        if (sum < lower) points--;
        if (sum > upper) points++;
        for (int i = k; i < calories.length; i++) {
            sum += calories[i] - calories[i-k];
            if (sum < lower) points--;
            if (sum > upper) points++;
        }
        return points;
    }
}
```

one for loop

```java
class Solution {
    // 0 1 2
    public int dietPlanPerformance(int[] calories, int k, int lower, int upper) {
        int points = 0;
        int sum = 0;
        for (int i = 0; i < calories.length; i++) {
            sum += calories[i];
            
            if (i >= k) { // when have over k sum, have a new sliding window sum
                sum -= calories[i-k];
            }
            if (i >= k-1) { // when have k sum, start to calculate points
                if (sum < lower) points--;
                if (sum > upper) points++;
            }
        }
        return points;
    }
}
```

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://timmybeeflin.gitbook.io/cracking-leetcode/two-pointer/1176.-diet-plan-performance.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
