Coding problem1

Interviewer asked only 1 coding problem and followup, I answer all the question in time, that's why we wrapped up early.

1. System Design Question

Given a list of [FileName, FileSize, [Collection]] - Collection is optional, i.e., a collection can have 1 or more files. 

Same file can be a part of more than 1 collection. How would you design a system :

to calculate total size of files processed?

to calculate Top K collections based on size?

Problem approach

1. Use a unordered map where key will be collection name and value will be sum of it's size.
2. Along with this also take one more variable that will store total size of the file, that will answer 1st subproblem.
3. push all the key, value pair into a max priority queue and select top K element from it.
