def largest_sum(arr):
    max_sum = 0
    current_sum = 0
    for i in arr:
        current_sum += i
        if current_sum < 0:
            current_sum = 0
        if current_sum > max_sum:
            max_sum = current_sum
    return max_sum

print(largest_sum([5, 10, -5, 11, 5, 20, -6]))
A.I. Evaluation of the Solution

The candidate's solution correctly returns the largest sum of consecutive integers in the array. The approach is straightforward and easy to follow.
