First unpaired event
First unpaired event
EasyYour task
- A log viewer receives event keys in arrival order.
- Find the first key that appears exactly once after normalization.
- Return that normalized key, or the empty string if no key occurs exactly once.
Required API
- Solve
func Solve(keys []string) string
Behavior
- Normalize only ASCII A–Z to a–z.
- Count every occurrence, even when repeats are far apart.
- Return lowercase and preserve encounter order when choosing the first unique key.
- Leave the input unchanged.
- Separate calls must not share mutable state.
- Use only the standard library.
Constraints
- The input is already valid: 0–1,000 identifiers, each 1–64 ASCII characters long.
- Allowed characters are letters, digits, underscores and hyphens: [A-Za-z0-9_-].
- Do not add parsing, trimming or validation.
Examples
The runner calls your functions directly; you do not need to parse JSON.
