Index Validation for get_sum

Raises ValueError if start or end is out of range or start > end. Handles cases where the array is empty.
✅ Empty Array Support

If an empty array is passed, get_sum raises an appropriate error instead of failing unexpectedly. ✅ Optimized contains_sum Initialization

Initializes sums with {0} for efficient subarray sum checking.

Describe your change:

  • Add an algorithm?
  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?
  • Add or change doctests? -- Note: Please avoid changing both code and tests in a single pull request.
  • Documentation change?

This ensures robustness while maintaining O(1) sum queries and O(n) target sum checks.
