Clear All Timers + Render DOM Elements
Solve two independent tasks: implement clearAllTimeouts for a timer registry and render a DOM tree from a nested object. Constraints: do not couple logic, avoid innerHTML. Complexity: clearAll O(k), render O(n) time.
What you’ll build / What this tests
This premium javascript coding focuses on Clear All Timers + Render DOM Elements. You’ll apply timers and dom thinking with intermediate level constraints. The prompt emphasizes Solve two independent tasks: implement clearAllTimeouts for a timer registry and render a DOM tree from….
Learning goals
- Translate the prompt into a clear javascript API signature and return shape.
- Apply timers, dom, recursion techniques to implement clear all timers + render dom elements.
- Handle intermediate edge cases without sacrificing readability.
- Reason about time/space complexity and trade-offs in javascript.
Key decisions to discuss
- Define the exact input/output contract before coding.
- Decide on concurrency and error propagation behavior.
- Prioritize predictable edge-case handling over micro-optimizations.
Evaluation rubric
- Correctness: covers required behaviors and edge cases.
- Clarity: readable structure and predictable control flow.
- Complexity: avoids unnecessary work for large inputs.
- API discipline: no mutation of inputs; returns expected shape.
- Testability: solution is easy to unit test.
Constraints / Requirements
- Avoid prototype pitfalls when reading object keys.
- Handle async flow without blocking the event loop.
- Avoid deep recursion issues on large inputs.
- Do not access the real DOM; use the provided node shape.
- Handle empty or missing inputs without throwing errors.
- Keep runtime close to linear time where possible.
- Prefer a pure function: no side effects beyond the return value.
Mini snippet (usage only)
// Example usage
const input = /* clear all timers + render dom elements input */;
const result = clearAllTimeouts(input);
console.log(result);
// Edge case check
const empty = input ?? null;
const fallback = clearAllTimeouts(input);
console.log(fallback);
// Expected: describe output shape, not the implementation
// (no solution code in preview)Common pitfalls
- Mutating inputs instead of returning a new value.
- Skipping edge cases like empty input, duplicates, or nulls.
- Overlooking time complexity for large inputs.
