Problem

Given an integer array nums and an integer k, return true if nums has a good subarray or false otherwise. A good subarray is a subarray where:
  • its length is at least two, and
  • the sum of the elements of the subarray is a multiple of k.
Note that:
  • A subarray is a contiguous part of the array.
  • An integer x is a multiple of k if there exists an integer n such that x = n * k. 0 is always a multiple of k.

Examples

Constraints

  • 1 <= nums.length <= 10^5
  • 0 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
  • 0 <= sum(nums[i]) <= 2^31 - 1
  • 1 <= k <= 2^31 - 1
