Lead Distribution Application (In-Memory)
Problem satement:
You are working for a Chicago based insurance company which distributes leads gathered from its website to its network of agents. The manufacturer has divided the city into the following regions; North, South, East and West. Inside each territory, agents are assigned leads in a rotation. If a new agent is hired they will go to the front of the queue for the next lead. If an agent leaves, they are removed from the rotation. Currently there are 3 agents in the North, 4 in the South, 8 in the East and 6 in the West. Sample lead Name: John Doe Territory: North Interest: Health Insurance Etc…
Answer: Territory: North Assigned Agent: Agent 2 (Agent 1 was the last assigned in the territory)
Your job is to create the function that takes in a lead and assign it to the appropriate territory and the next dealer in line. The definition of the function signature is completely up to you.
