Product of Array Except Self

Given an array of n integers where n > 1, nums, return an array output such that output[i] is equal to the product of all the elements of nums except nums[i].

Solve it without division and in O(n).

For example, given [1,2,3,4], return [24,12,8,6].

Follow up:

Could you solve it with constant space complexity? (Note: The output array does not count as extra space for the purpose of space complexity analysis.)

Solution:

public class Solution {
    public int[] productExceptSelf(int[] nums) {
        long prod = 1;
        for(int i=0; i<nums.length; i++){
            if(nums[i]==0){
                int p = 1;
                for(int j=0; j<nums.length; j++){
                    if(j==i) continue;
                    p *= nums[j];
                    nums[j] = 0;
                }
                nums[i] = p;
                return nums;
            } else {
                prod *= nums[i];
            }
        }
        for(int i=0; i<nums.length; i++) nums[i] = (int)(prod/nums[i]);
        return nums;
    }
}
