Problem Understanding

We are given a kitchen with a fixed stock of several ingredients. Each ingredient starts with some quantity. There is a menu of dishes, and every dish consumes certain amounts of these ingredients when prepared. Finally, there is a sequence of customer orders, and each order is a list of dishes that must all be prepared together.

Orders must be processed strictly in the given order. For each order, we check whether the current ingredient stock is sufficient to prepare every dish requested in that order. If it is, we deduct the used ingredients and move on. The first time we encounter an order that cannot be fully prepared, the kitchen stops immediately, and we report how many orders were successfully completed before this failure.

The constraints are small: at most 100 ingredients, 100 dishes, and 100 orders. Each dish can depend on up to 100 ingredients, and each order can contain up to 100 dishes. This size immediately suggests that recomputing ingredient usage from scratch for each order is feasible. Even in the worst case, we are doing on the order of a few million primitive operations, which is comfortably within limits for a 1 second solution in Python.

A subtle failure case for naive reasoning comes from forgetting that ingredient usage accumulates across dishes within the same order and across previous orders. For example, if ingredient 1 has quantity 5, and the first order uses 3 units and the second uses 3 more, the second order must fail even if each individual dish seems affordable in isolation. Another common mistake is partially applying an order before discovering insufficiency; the entire order must either succeed or fail atomically.

Approaches

A direct way to handle this is to simulate the process exactly as described. We store the current inventory of ingredients. For each order, we compute the total ingredient consumption required by summing up the contributions of every dish in that order. Once we know the total requirement for that order, we check whether all ingredients are available in sufficient quantity. If yes, we subtract them from the inventory; otherwise, we stop.

This brute-force approach is correct because it mirrors the process defined in the problem statement. The inefficiency concern comes from recomputing ingredient usage repeatedly. If we expand every order into all its dishes and each dish into its ingredient requirements, then for each order we may touch up to 100 dishes and each dish up to 100 ingredients, giving roughly 1e6 operations in total, which is already small. Since we only process each order once and stop at the first failure, there is no repeated recomputation across time steps that would push this beyond limits.

The key observation is that there is no dynamic structure or optimization needed beyond aggregation. Each order is independent except for the shared mutable inventory, so we only need a straightforward accumulation step per order.

Approach	Time Complexity	Space Complexity	Verdict
Brute Force simulation	O(O × average dishes × ingredients per dish)	O(M × N)	Accepted
Precomputed usage per dish + simulation	O(O × average dishes × N)	O(M × N)	Accepted

Algorithm Walkthrough

We first transform the dish descriptions into a structure that allows quick access to ingredient requirements. Then we repeatedly process each order until we either finish all or encounter failure.

1. Read the initial quantities of all ingredients and store them in an array. This represents the current state of the kitchen inventory.
2. For each dish, store a list or array of size N representing how much of each ingredient is required. This avoids repeated parsing during order processing and turns each dish into a direct vector-like object.
3. For each order, create a temporary array need of size N initialized to zero. This array aggregates the total ingredient demand for that order.
4. For every dish in the order, add its ingredient requirements into need. This step converts a list of dishes into a single consolidated requirement vector.
5. After processing all dishes in the order, compare need against current inventory. If any ingredient requirement exceeds available stock, stop immediately and return the number of successfully processed orders so far.
6. If the order is feasible, subtract need from the inventory and continue to the next order.

The key idea is that each order is treated as an indivisible transaction: we compute its full cost first, and only then apply it.

Why it works

At any point, the inventory represents exactly what remains after processing all previous successful orders. Each order is evaluated against this state using a complete aggregation of its requirements. Since we never partially apply an order, and since dish requirements are fixed and independent, the decision for each order is correct with respect to the current state. This maintains the invariant that inventory always reflects only fully completed orders.

Python Solution

import sys
input = sys.stdin.readline

def solve():
    N, M, O = map(int, input().split())
    stock = list(map(int, input().split()))

    dishes = [None] * M
    for i in range(M):
        k = int(input())
        req = [0] * N
        for _ in range(k):
            ing, amt = map(int, input().split())
            req[ing - 1] = amt
        dishes[i] = req

    done = 0

    for _ in range(O):
        parts = list(map(int, input().split()))
        o = parts[0]
        order_dishes = parts[1:]

        need = [0] * N

        for d in order_dishes:
            req = dishes[d - 1]
            for i in range(N):
                if req[i]:
                    need[i] += req[i]

        ok = True
        for i in range(N):
            if need[i] > stock[i]:
                ok = False
                break

        if not ok:
            break

        for i in range(N):
            stock[i] -= need[i]

        done += 1

    print(done)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    solve()

The solution precomputes each dish as a fixed-length ingredient vector so that order evaluation becomes a simple accumulation step. The critical implementation detail is to avoid modifying the inventory while checking feasibility; we only subtract after confirming the entire order can be satisfied.

Another subtle point is indexing: dishes and ingredients are 1-based in input, so both are converted to 0-based internally. The feasibility check must happen before any mutation of the stock array, otherwise a failed order would incorrectly consume resources.

Worked Examples

Consider a simplified scenario with one ingredient and three orders.

Sample trace

We track inventory and order processing.

Step	Stock	Order	Required	Feasible	New Stock
1	[10]	[1, 2]	[3 + 4 = 7]	Yes	[3]
2	[3]	[1]	[3]	Yes	[0]
3	[0]	[1]	[3]	No	stop

The process shows how consumption accumulates across orders until the stock becomes insufficient.

This confirms that the algorithm correctly handles cumulative depletion, not just per-order feasibility.

Another trace with early failure

Step	Stock	Order	Required	Feasible	New Stock
1	[2, 2]	[1]	[3, 1]	No	stop

Here the first order fails immediately, so no stock modification occurs and the answer is zero. This verifies the atomic nature of order processing.

Complexity Analysis

Measure	Complexity	Explanation
Time	O(O × M × N) in worst case	Each order iterates over its dishes, and each dish contributes up to N ingredient updates and checks
Space	O(M × N + N)	Storage for dish requirements and current stock

Given that all limits are at most 100, the total work is on the order of 1e6 operations, which comfortably fits within time and memory constraints.

Test Cases

import sys, io

def run(inp: str) -> str:
    sys.stdin = io.StringIO(inp)
    from __main__ import solve
    return str(solve())

# Note: adapt solve to return value for testing

A corrected test harness assumes solve() returns the answer:

import sys, io

def run(inp: str) -> str:
    sys.stdin = io.StringIO(inp)
    from __main__ import solve
    return str(solve())

# Since our solve prints, we redefine it here for tests
def solve():
    N, M, O = map(int, input().split())
    stock = list(map(int, input().split()))

    dishes = [None] * M
    for i in range(M):
        k = int(input())
        req = [0] * N
        for _ in range(k):
            ing, amt = map(int, input().split())
            req[ing - 1] = amt
        dishes[i] = req

    done = 0
    for _ in range(O):
        parts = list(map(int, input().split()))
        o = parts[0]
        order_dishes = parts[1:]

        need = [0] * N
        for d in order_dishes:
            req = dishes[d - 1]
            for i in range(N):
                need[i] += req[i]

        for i in range(N):
            if need[i] > stock[i]:
                print(done)
                return done

        for i in range(N):
            stock[i] -= need[i]

        done += 1

    print(done)
    return done

# provided samples (formatting-dependent; conceptual placeholders)
# assert run(...) == "1"
# assert run(...) == "3"

# custom cases
assert run("1 1 1\n5\n1\n1 5\n") == "1", "single perfect match"
assert run("1 1 1\n5\n1\n1 6\n") == "0", "immediate failure"
assert run("2 1 2\n5 5\n1\n1 1 1\n1 1\n") == "1", "depletion across orders"
assert run("2 2 2\n5 5\n1\n1 1 3\n1\n1 1\n") == "1", "second order fails"

Test input	Expected output	What it validates
single perfect match	1	basic successful execution
immediate failure	0	failure on first order
depletion across orders	1	cumulative resource usage
second order fails	1	stop at first invalid order

Edge Cases

A first edge case is when the very first order already exceeds available stock. In this situation, the algorithm performs a feasibility check, detects insufficiency, and returns zero without modifying inventory. The invariant that stock reflects only completed orders ensures correctness because no partial deduction occurs.

Another edge case arises when multiple dishes within a single order collectively exceed stock even though each individual dish appears affordable. The algorithm aggregates all contributions before checking, so the failure is detected at the order level rather than per dish. This prevents incorrect early subtraction.

A final case is when an order exactly exhausts an ingredient. Since the comparison is strict (need[i] > stock[i]), equality is allowed, and the stock becomes zero afterward. This preserves correctness for subsequent orders that require that ingredient, which will correctly fail unless they require none of it.
