Reset tallies: Total receipt
Inputs
readings is a list of integers (numbers with no decimal part). It may be empty, and numbers may repeat unless task 1 says otherwise.
Your tasks
- Create a list
tallies. Start a total at 0. Readreadingsfrom left to right. If the next number is 0, reset the total to 0. Otherwise, add that number to the total. Put the total intalliesafter each number. - Add up every number in
tallies. Store the sum intotal. - Complete
resetTalliesTotalReceiptso it returnstotal. Return it, do not print it.
Example
If readings is [6, 8, 6, -3, 8], then tallies is [6, 14, 20, 17, 25] and resetTalliesTotalReceipt returns 82.
Rules
- If
talliesis empty,totalis 0.
Test data
TEST DATA 1: readings is [0, 12, 14, -5, 12].
TEST DATA 2: readings is [5, -6, 5, 5].
Examples
Input: readings = [0,12,14,-5,12] Output: 92
tallies is [0, 12, 26, 21, 33]. Add its numbers to get 92. Return 92.
Input: readings = [5,-6,5,5] Output: 17
tallies is [5, -1, 4, 9]. Add its numbers to get 17. Return 17.
Input: readings = [] Output: 0
tallies is []. Add its numbers to get 0. Return 0.
Input limits
- 0 <= input size <= 64.
- Answers fit in a signed 32-bit integer: -2,147,483,648 through 2,147,483,647.
- Input numbers have no decimal part. They range from -1,000,000 to 1,000,000. Follow any extra input rules in task 1.
Efficiency goal
Big-O describes how the work or memory needed grows as the input gets larger.
Efficiency goal: time O(n); extra memory, including the helper list, O(n). n is the input length. These labels describe how work and memory grow with the input.
Practice focus
Build tallies first, then return exactly what the tasks ask for. Follow the order, keep repeated values when the rule says so, and check the empty case.
