Number of People Aware of a Secret
Understand how to apply dynamic programming techniques to model the spread and forgetting of a secret over time. Learn to implement delay and forget conditions and optimize your solution using modular arithmetic for large results.
We'll cover the following...
Statement
On day
Each person who learns the secret will begin sharing it with one new person every day, but only after a waiting period of delay days from when they first discovered it. Additionally, each person completely forgets the secret forget days after discovering it. Once a person has forgotten the secret (on the day of forgetting and all subsequent days), they can no longer share it.
Given an integer n, determine how many people know the secret at the end of day n. Since the result can be very large, return it modulo
