Exclusive Time of Functions

Explore how to calculate the exclusive execution time of functions running on a single-threaded CPU using stack data structures. Understand interpreting function start and end logs, managing nested function calls, and implementing efficient solutions in C#. This lesson helps you master stack-based approaches to solve timing problems commonly seen in coding interviews.

Statement

We are given an integer number, n, representing the number of functions running in a single-threaded CPU, and an execution log, which is essentially a list of strings. Each string has the format {function id}:{"start" | "end"}:{timestamp}, indicating that the function with function id either started or stopped execution at the time identified by the timestamp value. Each function has a unique ID between ...
