Given an array ARR of N integers and an integer S. The task is to find whether there exists a subarray(positive length) of the given array such that the sum of elements of the subarray equals to S or not. If any subarray is found, return the start and end index (0 based index) of the subarray. Otherwise, consider both the START and END indexes as -1.

Note:

If two or more such subarrays exist, return any subarray.

For Example: If the given array is [1,2,3,4] and the value of S is equal to 7. Then there are two possible subarrays having sums equal to S are [1,2,3] and [3,4].

Bob lives with his wife in a city named Berland. Bob is a good husband, so he goes out with his wife every Friday to ‘Arcade’ mall.

‘Arcade’ is a very famous mall in Berland. It has a very unique transportation method between shops. Since the shops in the mall are laying in a straight line, you can jump on a very advanced trampoline from the shop i, and land in any shop between (i) to (i + Arr[i]), where Arr[i] is a constant given for each shop.

There are N shops in the mall, numbered from 0 to N-1. Bob's wife starts her shopping journey from shop 0 and ends it in shop N-1. As the mall is very crowded on Fridays, unfortunately, Bob gets lost from his wife. So he wants to know, what is the minimum number of trampoline jumps from shop 0 he has to make in order to reach shop N-1 and see his wife again. If it is impossible to reach the last shop, return -1.
