+ # # Introduction - total running time
+ #
+ # The problem this module is trying to solve is finding the total running
+ # time amongst all the jobs, excluding retries and pending (queue) time.
+ # We could reduce this problem down to finding the union of periods.
+ #
+ # So each job would be represented as a `Period`, which consists of
+ # `Period#first` as when the job started and `Period#last` as when the
+ # job was finished. A simple example here would be:
+ #
+ # * A (1, 3)
+ # * B (2, 4)
+ # * C (6, 7)
+ #
+ # Here A begins from 1, and ends to 3. B begins from 2, and ends to 4.
+ # C begins from 6, and ends to 7. Visually it could be viewed as:
+ #
+ # 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+ # AAAAAAA
+ # BBBBBBB
+ # CCCC
+ #
+ # The union of A, B, and C would be (1, 4) and (6, 7), therefore the
+ # total running time should be:
+ #
+ # (4 - 1) + (7 - 6) => 4
+ #
+ # # The Algorithm
+ #
+ # The algorithm used here for union would be described as follow.
+ # First we make sure that all periods are sorted by `Period#first`.
+ # Then we try to merge periods by iterating through the first period
+ # to the last period. The goal would be merging all overlapped periods
+ # so that in the end all the periods are discrete. When all periods
+ # are discrete, we're free to just sum all the periods to get real
+ # running time.
+ #
+ # Here we begin from A, and compare it to B. We could find that
+ # before A ends, B already started. That is `B.first <= A.last`
+ # that is `2 <= 3` which means A and B are overlapping!
+ #
+ # When we found that two periods are overlapping, we would need to merge
+ # them into a new period and disregard the old periods. To make a new
+ # period, we take `A.first` as the new first because remember? we sorted
+ # them, so `A.first` must be smaller or equal to `B.first`. And we take
+ # `[A.last, B.last].max` as the new last because we want whoever ended
+ # later. This could be broken into two cases:
+ #
+ # 0 1 2 3 4
+ # AAAAAAA
+ # BBBBBBB
+ #
+ # Or:
+ #
+ # 0 1 2 3 4
+ # AAAAAAAAAA
+ # BBBB
+ #
+ # So that we need to take whoever ends later. Back to our example,
+ # after merging and discard A and B it could be visually viewed as:
+ #
+ # 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
+ # DDDDDDDDDD
+ # CCCC
+ #
+ # Now we could go on and compare the newly created D and the old C.
+ # We could figure out that D and C are not overlapping by checking
+ # `C.first <= D.last` is `false`. Therefore we need to keep both C
+ # and D. The example would end here because there are no more jobs.
+ #
+ # After having the union of all periods, we just need to sum the length
+ # of all periods to get total time.
+ #
+ # (4 - 1) + (7 - 6) => 4
+ #
+ # That is 4 is the answer in the example.
