1298. Maximum Candies You Can Get from Boxes

Hard

You have n boxes labeled from 0 to n - 1. You are given four arrays: status, candies, keys, and containedBoxes where:

You are given an integer array initialBoxes that contains the labels of the boxes you initially have. You can take all the candies in any open box and you can use the keys in it to open new boxes and you also can use the boxes you find in it.

Return the maximum number of candies you can get following the rules above.

Example 1:

Input: status = [1,0,1,0], candies = [7,5,4,100], keys = [[],[],[1],[]], containedBoxes = [[1,2],[3],[],[]], initialBoxes = [0]

Output: 16

Explanation: You will be initially given box 0. You will find 7 candies in it and boxes 1 and 2.

Box 1 is closed and you do not have a key for it so you will open box 2. You will find 4 candies and a key to box 1 in box 2.

In box 1, you will find 5 candies and box 3 but you will not find a key to box 3 so box 3 will remain closed.

Total number of candies collected = 7 + 4 + 5 = 16 candy.

Example 2:

Input: status = [1,0,0,0,0,0], candies = [1,1,1,1,1,1], keys = [[1,2,3,4,5],[],[],[],[],[]], containedBoxes = [[1,2,3,4,5],[],[],[],[],[]], initialBoxes = [0]

Output: 6

Explanation: You have initially box 0. Opening it you can find boxes 1,2,3,4 and 5 and their keys.

The total number of candies will be 6.
