Question

For sales CRM, process a timestamp-ordered stream of activities. Find the longest contiguous window where at most k distinct risk labels appear and the total severity stays under budget.

Input

Array of events {label, severity} and integers k, budget.

Output

Maximum window length satisfying both constraints.

Constraints

1 <= events.length <= 300000
1 <= k <= 50
Severity values are positive integers.

Concepts

workflow graphs
API pagination
cache invalidation
sliding window
frequency map
stream processing

labels: A,B,A,C with k=2 and budget=7 -> longest valid window length is 3

Approach

Try framing your own approach first. The 30 seconds you think before peeking is where learning happens.

Clean Solution

Reveal the approach first.

How well did you understand?

Your rating tunes when this problem shows up again.

Common Mistakes

Update the answer only after the window is valid.
Avoid recomputing the whole window on every move.
