# Insurance networks
|
|
|
|
The following grammar:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
<lines> ::= <line> | <line> "\n" <lines>
|
|
<line> ::= <insurer-id> ":" <percent> <optional-exprs>
|
|
<optional-exprs> ::= "" | "if" <exprs>
|
|
<exprs> ::= <expr> | <expr> "and" <exprs>
|
|
<expr> ::= <lesser-than> | <greater-than> | <equals> | <insurer-id>
|
|
<lesser-than> ::= "<" <integer>
|
|
<greater-than> ::= ">" <integer>
|
|
<equals> ::= "=" <integer>
|
|
<insurer-id> ::= "I" <integer>
|
|
<percent> ::= <integer> "%"
|
|
<integer> ::= <digit> | <non-zero-digit> <integer>
|
|
<digit> ::= "0" | <non-zero-digit>
|
|
<non-zero-digit> ::= "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9"
|
|
```

is used to represents insurance networks.
|
|
|
|
Given a single input of type `Int`, the job of these networks is to provide, if possible, exactly 100% underwriting capital using the fewest insurers possible. Each insurer contributes their percentage only if their respective conditions are met.
|
|
|
|
Below is a simple example of such a network:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
I1: 50%
|
|
I2: 50% if <5
|
|
I3: 40% if I1
|
|
I4: 30% if I2 and <5
|
|
I5: 10% if I3 and I4
|
|
I6: 10% if I3
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
where:
|
|
- Insurer `I1` contributes 50% unconditionally, for any input
|
|
- `I2` contributes 50% only if the input is `<5`
|
|
- `I3` contributes 40% only if `I1` contributes
|
|
- etc...
|
|
|
|
Given the above, your task is to write a small command line program that takes 2 parameters:
|
|
- the path to a file that defines a network
|
|
- an integer input to the network
|
|
|
|
and outputs a list of the fewest contributing insurers (by their integer ids).
|
|
|
|
Eg. if your program was given the above example network and:
|
|
- input `3` then it would output `[1, 2]` (representing insurers `I1` and `I2`)
|
|
- input `6` then it would output `[1, 3, 6]`
|
|
|
|
If a network is unable to collect exactly 100% for a given input then your program should output `[]`.
|

|
Please create a new private github repository named `artificial-network`, commit all your code there and once finished please invite me, `pwm`, so we can check your solution.

Good luck! |
