Here's a solution in javascript
var data = [10 , 20 , 30, -10 , -50 , 40 , -50, -1, -3];
function max(array) {
var i = array[0];
array.forEach(function(val) {
if(val > i)
i = val;
});
return i;
}
function maxSum(i, data, canSkip) {
var len = data.length - i;
if( len === 1) {
if(canSkip && data[i] < 0) {
return 0;
} else {
return data[i];
}
} else if(len <1) {
return 0;
}
var skippedI = maxSum(i + 1, data, false);
var notSkippedISkippedJ = maxSum(i + 1, data, true) + data[i];
var notSkippedINotSkippedJ = maxSum(i + 2, data, false) + data[i] +
(data[i+1] || 0);
if(canSkip) {
return max([skippedI, notSkippedISkippedJ, notSkippedINotSkippedJ]);
} else {
return max([notSkippedISkippedJ, notSkippedINotSkippedJ]);
}
}
console.log(maxSum(0, data, false));
