Hey suppose given a list of values i need to update a range(add a number to all numbers in that range) and query the number of numbers in that range smaller than 0.Can u suggest an O(log k where k is the length of the range) time complex algorithm for it.I think it's a variation of segment trees but don't know how?

It is an article from which I learned segment tree with the queries which require the updating of some range. (But in Japanese) I think you can solve the problem with it.

You can use translating system, I think...
