# Generic LRU cache

Implement **`solution.go`** in `package challenge` exporting a generic
least-recently-used cache:

```go
type LRUCache[K comparable, V any] struct { /* unexported fields */ }

func NewLRUCache[K comparable, V any](capacity int) *LRUCache[K, V]

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Get(key K) (V, bool)
func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Put(key K, value V)
func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Len() int
```

Behavior:

- `NewLRUCache(capacity)` creates an empty cache that holds at most `capacity`
  entries. If `capacity <= 0`, treat it as `0`: the cache stores nothing and
  `Len()` is always `0`.
- `Get(key)` returns the stored value and `true` if `key` is present, or the
  zero value of `V` and `false` otherwise. A successful `Get` counts as a
  **use**, making `key` the most-recently-used entry.
- `Put(key, value)` inserts or updates `key`. Inserting or updating makes `key`
  the most-recently-used entry. If adding a **new** key would exceed `capacity`,
  the **least-recently-used** entry is evicted first. Updating the value of an
  existing key never evicts anything.
- `Len()` returns the current number of stored entries.
- Works for any `comparable` key type and any value type (e.g. `string`/`int`
  keys, struct or pointer values).

Examples:

```go
c := NewLRUCache[string, int](2)
c.Put("a", 1)
c.Put("b", 2)
c.Get("a")        // (1, true); now "b" is least-recently-used
c.Put("c", 3)     // evicts "b"
c.Get("b")        // (0, false)
c.Len()           // 2
```

The task is to implement a generic LRU (Least Recently Used) cache in Go. Let me break down the requirements:

1. Generic type `LRUCache[K comparable, V any]`
2. Constructor `NewLRUCache[K comparable, V any](capacity int)` - capacity <= 0 means 0 capacity
3. `Get(key K) (V, bool)` - returns value and true if exists, updates LRU order on successful get
4. `Put(key K, value V)` - inserts or updates, updates LRU order, evicts LRU if capacity exceeded
5. `Len() int` - returns current number of entries

For an LRU cache, I need to:
1. Track which keys are in the cache
2. Track the order of usage (most recent to least recent)
3. When capacity is exceeded, remove the least recently used entry

Common approaches:
- Use a map for O(1) key lookup
- Use a doubly linked list to maintain order (most recent at head, least recent at tail)
- When accessing/inserting, move the node to the head
- When evicting, remove from tail

Let me implement this:

```go
package challenge

import (
	"sync"
)

type LRUCache[K comparable, V any] struct {
	capacity int
	size     int
	keyToNode map[K]*node[K, V]
	head *node[K, V]
	tail *node[K, V]
}

type node[K comparable, V any] struct {
	key K
	value V
	prev *node[K, V]
	next *node[K, V]
}

func NewLRUCache[K comparable, V any](capacity int) *LRUCache[K, V] {
	if capacity <= 0 {
		return &LRUCache[K, V]{
			capacity: 0,
			size:     0,
			keyToNode: make(map[K]*node[K, V]),
		}
	}
	return &LRUCache[K, V]{
		capacity: capacity,
		size:     0,
		keyToNode: make(map[K]*node[K, V]),
	}
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Get(key K) (V, bool) {
	if c.capacity == 0 {
		var zero V
		return zero, false
	}
	
	node, ok := c.keyToNode[key]
	if !ok {
		var zero V
		return zero, false
	}
	
	// Move to front (most recently used)
	c.moveToFront(node)
	
	return node.value, true
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Put(key K, value V) {
	if c.capacity == 0 {
		return
	}
	
	node, ok := c.keyToNode[key]
	if ok {
		// Update existing key
		node.value = value
		c.moveToFront(node)
		return
	}
	
	// Create new node
	newNode := &node[K, V]{
		key: key,
		value: value,
	}
	c.keyToNode[key] = newNode
	
	// Add to front
	c.addToFront(newNode)
	c.size++
	
	// Evict if over capacity
	if c.size > c.capacity {
		c.evictLRU()
	}
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Len() int {
	return c.size
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) addToFront(node *node[K, V]) {
	if c.head == nil {
		c.head = node
		c.tail = node
	} else {
		node.next = c.head
		c.head.prev = node
		c.head = node
	}
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) moveToFront(node *node[K, V]) {
	if node.prev != nil {
		node.prev.next = node.next
	}
	if node.next != nil {
		node.next.prev = node.prev
	}
	
	if node == c.tail {
		c.tail = node.prev
	}
	
	if node == c.head {
		c.head = node.next
	}
	
	node.prev = nil
	node.next = c.head
	if c.head != nil {
		c.head.prev = node
	}
	c.head = node
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) evictLRU() {
	if c.tail == nil {
		return
	}
	
	node := c.tail
	delete(c.keyToNode, node.key)
	c.removeNode(node)
	c.size--
}

func (c *LRUCache[K, V]) removeNode(node *node[K, V]) {
	if node.prev != nil {
		node.prev.next = node.next
	} else {
		c.head = node.next
	}
	
	if node.next != nil {
		node.next.prev = node.prev
	} else {
		c.tail = node.prev
	}
}
```

I'm reconsidering the `moveToFront` implementation. The current logic for handling node removal and repositioning needs careful review to ensure correct linked list manipulation.

The key challenge is managing the head and tail pointers while moving nodes, especially when the node is already at the head or tail. I'll need to carefully track the node's position and update the surrounding pointers accordingly.

My approach will focus on creating a robust method that handles all edge cases for node repositioning in the doubly linked list.

When capacity is exceeded, remove the least recently used entry\n\nCommon approaches:\n- Use a map for O(1) key lookup\n- Use a doubly linked list to maintain order (most recent at head, least recent at tail)\n- When accessing/inserting, move the node to the head\n- When evicting, remove from tail\n\nLet me implement this:\n\n```go\npackage challenge\n\nimport (\n\t\"sync\"\n)\n\ntype LRUCache[K comparable, V any] struct {\n\tcapacity int\n\tsize     int\n\tkeyToNode map[K]*node[K, V]\n\thead *node[K, V]\n\ttail *node[K, V]\n}\n\ntype node[K comparable, V any] struct {\n\tkey K\n\tvalue V\n\tprev *node[K, V]\n\tnext *node[K, V]\n}\n\nfunc NewLRUCache[K comparable, V any](capacity int) *LRUCache[K, V] {\n\tif capacity <= 0 {\n\t\treturn &LRUCache[K, V]{\n\t\t\tcapacity: 0,\n\t\t\tsize:     0,\n\t\t\tkeyToNode: make(map[K]*node[K, V]),\n\t\t}\n\t}\n\treturn &LRUCache[K, V]{\n\t\tcapacity: capacity,\n\t\tsize:     0,\n\t\tkeyToNode: make(map[K]*node[K, V]),\n\t}\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Get(key K) (V, bool) {\n\tif c.capacity == 0 {\n\t\tvar zero V\n\t\treturn zero, false\n\t}\n\t\n\tnode, ok := c.keyToNode[key]\n\tif !ok {\n\t\tvar zero V\n\t\treturn zero, false\n\t}\n\t\n\t// Move to front (most recently used)\n\tc.moveToFront(node)\n\t\n\treturn node.value, true\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Put(key K, value V) {\n\tif c.capacity == 0 {\n\t\treturn\n\t}\n\t\n\tnode, ok := c.keyToNode[key]\n\tif ok {\n\t\t// Update existing key\n\t\tnode.value = value\n\t\tc.moveToFront(node)\n\t\treturn\n\t}\n\t\n\t// Create new node\n\tnewNode := &node[K, V]{\n\t\tkey: key,\n\t\tvalue: value,\n\t}\n\tc.keyToNode[key] = newNode\n\t\n\t// Add to front\n\tc.addToFront(newNode)\n\tc.size++\n\t\n\t// Evict if over capacity\n\tif c.size > c.capacity {\n\t\tc.evictLRU()\n\t}\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) Len() int {\n\treturn c.size\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) addToFront(node *node[K, V]) {\n\tif c.head == nil {\n\t\tc.head = node\n\t\tc.tail = node\n\t} else {\n\t\tnode.next = c.head\n\t\tc.head.prev = node\n\t\tc.head = node\n\t}\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) moveToFront(node *node[K, V]) {\n\tif node.prev != nil {\n\t\tnode.prev.next = node.next\n\t}\n\tif node.next != nil {\n\t\tnode.next.prev = node.prev\n\t}\n\t\n\tif node == c.tail {\n\t\tc.tail = node.prev\n\t}\n\t\n\tif node == c.head {\n\t\tc.head = node.next\n\t}\n\t\n\tnode.prev = nil\n\tnode.next = c.head\n\tif c.head != nil {\n\t\tc.head.prev = node\n\t}\n\tc.head = node\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) evictLRU() {\n\tif c.tail == nil {\n\t\treturn\n\t}\n\t\n\tnode := c.tail\n\tdelete(c.keyToNode, node.key)\n\tc.removeNode(node)\n\tc.size--\n}\n\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) removeNode(node *node[K, V]) {\n\tif node.prev != nil {\n\t\tnode.prev.next = node.next\n\t} else {\n\t\tc.head = node.next\n\t}\n\t\n\tif node.next != nil {\n\t\tnode.next.prev = node.prev\n\t} else {\n\t\tc.tail = node.prev\n\t}\n}\n```\n\nI'm reconsidering the `moveToFront` implementation. The current logic for handling node removal and repositioning needs careful review to ensure correct linked list manipulation.\n\nThe key challenge is managing the head and tail pointers while moving nodes, especially when the node is already at the head or tail. I'll need to carefully track the node's position and update the surrounding pointers accordingly.\n\nMy approach will focus on creating a robust method that handles all edge cases for node repositioning in the doubly linked list.\n",

This suggests that somewhere in the code, `node` is being used as a type name when it's actually a variable.\n\nLooking at the code more carefully, I see the issue. In the `moveToFront` function, there's a check `if node == c.tail` and `if node == c.head`. But `c.tail` and `c.head` are of type `*node[K, V]`, and `node` is also of type `*node[K, V]`. That should be fine.\n\nWait, let me look at the `removeNode` function:\n\n```go\nfunc (c *LRUCache[K, V]) removeNode(node *node[K, V]) {\n\tif node.prev != nil {\n\t\tnode.prev.next = node.next\n\t} else {\n\t\tc.head = node.next\n\t}\n\n\tif node.next != nil {\n\t\tnode.next.prev = node.prev\n\t} else {\n\t\tc.tail = node.prev\n\t}\n}\n```\n\nThis looks fine too.\n\nActually, wait. Let me look at the error more carefully. The error is on line 61, column 14. \n\nI need to count the lines to find the exact location of the error. The `moveToFront` function starts around line 57, so line 61 would be in the middle of that function. The error suggests there's a type confusion with the `node` variable.\n\nLooking at the function signature and implementation, I notice the parameter `node` is a pointer to a node. The comparisons with `c.tail` and `c.head` should work correctly since they're all pointers to the same node type.\n\nThe issue might be in how the node pointers are being manipulated or compared. I'll need to carefully trace through the pointer assignments to identify where the type mismatch occurs. I'm tracing through the LRU cache implementation, focusing on the `moveToFront` function. The error suggests a type mismatch with the `node` variable. I need to carefully examine how the node pointers are being manipulated, particularly around the head and tail pointer assignments. The function seems to be moving a node to the front of the doubly-linked list, but there might be an issue with how the pointers are being updated or compared.\n\nThe key concern is ensuring that when moving a node, the previous and next pointers are correctly adjusted to maintain the linked list structure.
