DIY: Task Scheduler
Solve the interview question "Task Scheduler" in this lesson.
We'll cover the following
Problem statement
You are given a character array of tasks, where each character represents a different task that the CPU needs to carry out. Each time the CPU executes a given task, a specific number of intervals must elapse before the CPU can run the same task again. This idle time will also be given. Calculate the minimum time needed to complete all the tasks. We will assume that carrying out each task takes a one-time interval.
