3. websites visited by an user ‘U’. Every visited website and Selection
information is stored in a 2-tuple format viz.,
(website_id,Duration_of_visit) in the URL cache.
Using split, apply and continue operations, device a
code snippet that consolidate the website history and
find out the website whose duration of visit is
maximum.
Example:
Input:[(4,2),(5,1),(4,3),(1,4),(7,3),(5,2),(1,1),(7,1)]
Output:[(4,5),(5,3),(1,5),(7,4)].
The website with key_id ‘1’ has the max.duration of
visit=5.(
