/**

 * @brief Implementation of [Kadane
 * Algorithm] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kadane%27s_algorithm)
 *
 * @details
 * Kadane algorithm is used to find the maximum sum subarray in an array and
 * maximum sum subarray problem is the task of finding a contiguous subarray
 * with the largest sum
 *
 * ### Algorithm
 * The simple idea of the algorithm is to search for all positive
 * contiguous segments of the array and keep track of maximum sum contiguous
 * segment among all positive segments(curr_sum is used for this)
 * Each time we get a positive sum we compare it with max_sum and update max_sum
 * if it is greater than curr_sum
