CodingAlgorithms & data structuresSenior–Staff~30 min

Given an array of positive integers, return the sum of the minimum element over every contiguous subarray, modulo 1_000_000_007. There are n*(n+1)/2 subarrays. The array has at least one element.

What a strong answer looks like

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
