Exercise idea
Implement a fixed-window rate limiter that enforces a maximum number of actions per key within a time window.
Concepts taught
State management: tracking per-key counters and window start times.
Time handling: reasoning about elapsed time and window boundaries.
Boundary conditions: handling “at the exact moment” vs “just past” a window.
