* 3:46pm - 4:36pm
* Read the question, and figure out the design:
* Like database table using index, need to prepare index.
* Only update query -
* 1: case 1:replace the position which has value 0;
* 2. additional elment with value zero in the array
* Just put Hashtable to the array, and then, sort the array O(nlogn).
* Maintain a hashtable and array for value 0 in the array
* Otherwise, time complexity should be ok.
* To make sort minimum - only sort when next query of kth zero comes in,
* also set isDirty to track if update is need or not.
