Stock Maximize
Problem Statement :
Your algorithms have become so good at predicting the market that you now know what the share price of Wooden Orange Toothpicks Inc. (WOT) will be for the next number of days. Each day, you can either buy one share of WOT, sell any number of shares of WOT that you own, or not make any transaction at all. What is the maximum profit you can obtain with an optimum trading strategy? Example prices = [1,2] Buy one share day one, and sell it day two for a profit of 1. Return 1. prices = [2,1] No profit can be made so you do not buy or sell stock those days. Return 0. Function Description Complete the stockmax function in the editor below. stockmax has the following parameter(s): prices: an array of integers that represent predicted daily stock prices Returns int: the maximum profit achievable Input Format The first line contains the number of test cases t. Each of the next t pairs of lines contain: - The first line contains an integer n, the number of predicted prices for WOT. - The next line contains n space-separated integers prices[i], each a predicted stock price for day i. Constraints 1 <= t <= 10 1 <= n <= 5000 1 <= prices[i] <= 100000 Output Format Output t lines, each containing the maximum profit which can be obtained for the corresponding test case.

In Python3 :
test=int(input())
for i in range(test):
n=int(input())
a=list(map(int,input().split()))
c=0
i=len(a)-1
while(i>=0):
d=a[i]
l=i
p=0
while(a[i]<=d and i>=0):
p+=a[i]
i-=1
c+=(l-i)*a[l]-p
continue
print (c)

Minimum Average Waiting Time
Tieu owns a pizza restaurant and he manages it in his own way. While in a normal restaurant, a customer is served by following the first-come, first-served rule, Tieu simply minimizes the average waiting time of his customers. So he gets to decide who is served first, regardless of how sooner or later a person comes. Different kinds of pizzas take different amounts of time to cook. Also, once h
