# Typed event emitter
Implement **`solution.ts`** exporting a generic, fully typed event emitter:
```ts
export class EventEmitter<Events extends Record<string, unknown[]>> {
on<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, fn: (...args: Events[E]) => void): () => void;
off<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, fn: (...args: Events[E]) => void): void;
emit<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, ...args: Events[E]): void;
}
```
`Events` maps an event name to the **tuple of argument types** its listeners receive.
- `on(event, fn)` registers a listener and returns an **unsubscribe** function. Calling
the returned function removes that exact listener.
- `off(event, fn)` removes a previously registered listener. Removing a listener that is
not registered is a no-op.
- `emit(event, ...args)` calls every listener registered for `event`, **in the order they
were registered**, passing `args`. Emitting an event with no listeners is a no-op.
- The same function may be registered more than once; each registration is independent.
Example:
```ts
type Events = {
message: [text: string];
count: [n: number, label: string];
};
const ee = new EventEmitter<Events>();
const unsub = ee.on("message", (text) => console.log(text));
ee.emit("message", "hi"); // logs "hi"
unsub();
ee.emit("message", "bye"); // nothing logged
```
Keep it fully typed (must pass `tsc --noEmit` in strict mode). Do not use `any` in the
public API.

System prompt
You are an expert programmer. Solve the task exactly as specified. Output your solution as fenced code blocks using the required file name(s) and the exact function/type signatures requested. Prefer correctness; do not include prose outside code unless asked.
Proposed solution
```ts
export class EventEmitter<Events extends Record<string, unknown[]>> {
private listeners: Map<keyof Events, Set<(...args: Events[keyof Events]) => void>> = new Map();
on<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, fn: (...args: Events[E]) => void): () => void {
if (!this.listeners.has(event)) {
this.listeners.set(event, new Set());
}
const set = this.listeners.get(event)!;
set.add(fn);
return () => this.off(event, fn);
}
off<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, fn: (...args: Events[E]) => void): void {
const set = this.listeners.get(event);
if (set) {
set.delete(fn);
}
}
emit<E extends keyof Events>(event: E, ...args: Events[E]): void {
const set = this.listeners.get(event);
if (set) {
for (const fn of set) {
fn(...args);
}
}
}
}
