  • DEFAULTED: Trades whose next payment date is late by more than 30 days based on a reference date which will be given.
  • HIGHRISK: Trades with value greater than 1,000,000 and client from Private Sector.
  • MEDIUMRISK: Trades with value greater than 1,000,000 and client from Public Sector.

Input

1. The first line of the input is the reference date.
2. The second line contains an integer n, the number of trades in the portfolio.
3. The next n lines contain 3 elements each (separated by a space). First a double that represents trade amount, second a string that represents the client’s sector and third a date that represents the next pending payment. All dates are in the format mm/dd/yyyy.

Output

N lines with the category of each one of the n trades.

Example

• Smaple input:

12/11/2020
4
2000000 Private 12/29/2025
400000 Public 07/01/2020
5000000 Public 01/02/2024
3000000 Public 10/26/2023

• Sample Output:

HIGHRISK
DEFAULTED
MEDIUMRISK
MEDIUMRISK

Question 1 - Answer

• The code is tested with Clang 10.0 on Ubuntu 20.04 ( Docker image latest)

Project structure

• src The project
  • bin - Binary folder with main and functions to parse input and generate output.
  • lib - Library with the actual objective implementation
    • trade.h - Trade and ITrade classes following the question structure.
    • category.h - Category classes and function
  • test - (For the future) Units tests of Trade library with catch2
• regression-test - Regression tests to validate the actual code.
• Obs1: For DateTime logic is use boost::posix_time::ptime
• Obs2: The other library dependencies, like boost, are getting by the Conan Package Manager.

Question 2 - Answer

• In this case:
  1. It will create a new category class, PEP, inheriting from ICategory and at categoryByPriority in findTradeCategory function will be the first element to be the first category to check.
  2. It will change the trade classes to contain PoliticallyExposed information and it will change the readTrade function on main file to expect the new value.
