146. LRU Cache

Design a data structure that follows the constraints of a Least Recently Used (LRU) cache.

Implement the LRUCache class:

• LRUCache(int capacity) Initialize the LRU cache with positive size capacity.
• int get(int key) Return the value of the key if the key exists, otherwise return -1.
• void put(int key, int value) Update the value of the key if the key exists. Otherwise, add the key-value pair to the cache. If the number of keys exceeds the capacity from this operation, evict the least recently used key.

Could you do get and put in O(1) time complexity?

    int c;

    void moveFront(list<pair<int, int>>& li, list<pair<int,int>>::iterator it) {
        if(it != begin(li)) {
            li.splice(li.begin(), li, it, next(it));
        }
    }

    void insert(int key, int value) {
        l.push_front({key, value});
        m[key] = l.begin();
        if(l.size() > c) {
            balance(l.back().first);
        }
    }

    void balance(int key) {
        m.erase(key);
        l.pop_back();
    }

    LRUCache(int capacity) : c(capacity) {}

    int get(int key) {
        if(!m.count(key)) return -1;
        int res = m[key]->second;
        moveFront(l, m[key]);

        return res;
    }

    void put(int key, int value) {

            insert(key, value);
        } else {
            m[key]->second = value;
            moveFront(l, m[key]);
