    1656 - Design an Ordered Stream\.

    Easy

    There is a stream of n (idKey, value) pairs arriving in an arbitrary order, where idKey is an integer between 1 and n and value is a string. No two pairs have the same id.

    Design a stream that returns the values in increasing order of their IDs by returning a chunk (list) of values after each insertion. The concatenation of all the chunks should result in a list of the sorted values.

    Implement the OrderedStream class:

    • OrderedStream(int n) Constructs the stream to take n values.

    • String[] insert(int idKey, String value) Inserts the pair (idKey, value) into the stream, then returns the largest possible chunk of currently inserted values that appear next in the order.

    Example:

    Input "OrderedStream", "insert", "insert", "insert", "insert", "insert"

    [5, 3, "ccccc", 1, "aaaaa", 2, "bbbbb", 5, "eeeee", 4, "ddddd"]

    Output: [null, [], "aaaaa", "bbbbb", "ccccc", [], "ddddd", "eeeee"]

    Explanation:

    // Note that the values ordered by ID is ["aaaaa", "bbbbb", "ccccc", "ddddd", "eeeee"].
    OrderedStream os = new OrderedStream(5);
    os.insert(3, "ccccc"); // Inserts (3, "ccccc"), returns [].
    os.insert(1, "aaaaa"); // Inserts (1, "aaaaa"), returns ["aaaaa"].
    os.insert(2, "bbbbb"); // Inserts (2, "bbbbb"), returns ["bbbbb", "ccccc"].
    os.insert(5, "eeeee"); // Inserts (5, "eeeee"), returns [].
    os.insert(4, "ddddd"); // Inserts (4, "ddddd"), returns ["ddddd", "eeeee"].
    // Concatentating all the chunks returned:
    // [] + ["aaaaa"] + ["bbbbb", "ccccc"] + [] + ["ddddd", "eeeee"] = ["aaaaa", "bbbbb", "ccccc", "ddddd", "eeeee"]
    // The resulting order is the same as the order above.

    Constraints:

    • 1 <= n <= 1000

    • 1 <= id <= n

    • value.length == 5

    • value consists only of lowercase letters.

    • Each call to insert will have a unique id.

    • Exactly n calls will be made to insert.
