Why including null subarray in presum

#1

why are we including null subarray while calculating pre sum

#2

I think your doubt is why we initialized pre[0] = 1.
It is done because for every pre[i] where i=0, we have two types of choices either to take this subarray starting 0 to that index or take it with another array whose sum is also same as it.
