The problem

There is an ATM machine that stores banknotes of 5 denominations: 20, 50, 100, 200, and 500 dollars. Initially the ATM is empty.

Example

Input
["ATM", "deposit", "withdraw", "deposit", "withdraw", "withdraw"]
Output
[null, null, [0,0,1,0,1], null, [-1], [0,1,0,0,1]]
Explanation
ATM atm = new ATM();

Python solution

Python
class ATM:
    def __init__(self):
        self.d = [20, 50, 100, 200, 500]
        self.m = len(self.d)
        self.cnt = [0] * self.m

    def deposit(self, banknotesCount: List[int]) -> None:
        for i, x in enumerate(banknotesCount):
            self.cnt[i] += x

    def withdraw(self, amount: int) -> List[int]:
        ans = [0] * self.m
        for i in reversed(range(self.m)):
            ans[i] = min(amount // self.d[i], self.cnt[i])
            amount -= ans[i] * self.d[i]
        if amount > 0:
            return [-1]
        for i, x in enumerate(ans):
            self.cnt[i] -= x
        return ans


# Your ATM object will be instantiated and called as such:
# obj = ATM()
# obj.deposit(banknotesCount)
# param_2 = obj.withdraw(amount)
