Coding workflows · Earliest-finish interval selection

03
Built around your work

A concrete starting point

Choose a maximum-size nonoverlapping subset of up to 64 half-open intervals with integer endpoints within ±10^9. Test touching endpoints and tied finishes, rejecting empty-length intervals while preserving the input and returning original indices.

01

Open the context

Choose the project folder and name the files or behavior involved.

02

Define the change

Describe the input, expected output and boundaries that must stay intact.

03

Inspect the work

Review the proposed edits and any commands before relying on their result.

04

Check the outcome

Compare actual behavior with the expected result. If a check fails, investigate it before applying more changes.

Earliest-finish interval selection

A concrete starting point
def interval_selection(intervals):
    if type(intervals) is not list or len(intervals) > 64:
        raise ValueError("schedule.input")
    ordered = []
    for index, pair in enumerate(intervals):
        if type(pair) not in (list, tuple) or len(pair) != 2 or any(type(x) is not int or abs(x) > 10**9 for x in pair):
            raise ValueError("schedule.pair")
        start, end = pair
        if start >= end:
            raise ValueError("schedule.interval")
        ordered.append((end, start, index))
    selected, last = [], None
    for end, start, index in sorted(ordered):
        if last is None or start >= last:
            selected.append(index)
            last = end
    return selected

The example is a starting point for a real project, not a claim that generated code is already tested. Adjust paths, dependencies and expected behavior to match your application.
