You are given an array ‘A’ of length ‘N’, you have to tell the number of arithmetic subarrays that exist in the array ‘A’.

An Arithmetic subarray is a subarray that has 3 or more elements and the difference between consecutive elements is the same. Eg: [1, 3, 5, 7] has a length of 4, and diff between any two consecutive elements is 2.

Note:
A subarray is a slice from a contiguous array (i.e., occupy consecutive positions) and inherently maintains the order of elements.
