Indeed!

And...going back to Sean's original post he did write:

"I just need max(Y)."

Thus, a whole group of us (independently) managed to over-engineer the
solution. 

Presuming of course, that Sean does not require the entire cumulative
sum vector for other purposes.

I wonder what that says about human cognition....

Thanks,
