Parking Fee

Easy · rating 1000 · Math, Implementation

Constraints: 0 ≤ hours, rate, cap ≤ 106

Editorial

Approach

The uncapped charge is hours × rate; the garage bills the smaller of that and the daily cap. One min expresses the whole rule.

hours, rate, cap = map(int, input().split())
print(min(hours * rate, cap))

Complexity

Time: O(1). Space: O(1).
