Problem: Count Items Matching a Rule
Explore how to implement a linear search to count items in an array matching a given rule key and value in JavaScript. Understand indexing mapping for rule keys and efficient iteration to solve this problem with optimal time and space complexity.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
You are given an array items, where each items[i] = [type_i, color_i, name_i] represents the type, color, and name of the ruleKey and ruleValue, that together define a matching rule.
An item is considered a match if any of the following conditions holds:
ruleKey == "type"andruleValue == type_iruleKey == "color"andruleValue == color_iruleKey == "name"andruleValue == name_i
Return the total number of items in items that match the given rule.
Constraints:
items.length...
