/**
 * Given an integer array nums, return the number of range sums that lie in [lower, upper] inclusive.
 Range sum S(i, j) is defined as the sum of the elements in nums between indices i and j (i ≤ j), inclusive.

 Note:
 A naive algorithm of O(n2) is trivial. You MUST do better than that.

 Example:
 Given nums = [-2, 5, -1], lower = -2, upper = 2,
 Return 3.
 The three ranges are : [0, 0], [2, 2], [0, 2] and their respective sums are: -2, -1, 2.
