Early bird flat rate: Saturday is treated as a weekday · case 01

Early bird flat rate returns a wrong result when saturday is treated as a weekday.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The inclusive comparison admits day index 5 (Saturday) to the weekday-only early bird.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Restore the weekday eligibility rule so that the step reads `ed % 7 < 5`.

Unsuccessful approach: Assuming Sunday is day zero excludes Monday and admits Saturday.

Case contract

Input {entry: [day, minute], exit: [day, minute], hourly, daily_max, early}; day % 7 == 0 is Monday. Regular fee = min(started hours*hourly, started 24h periods (at least 1)*daily_max). Early bird applies on weekdays when entry is 06:00-09:00 inclusive and exit is the same day 15:00-19:00 inclusive; the customer pays min(regular, early). Negative durations are 'invalid'.

Why this case matters

Fee engines bill customers in integer cents; a wrong boundary, rounding stage or cap scope silently over- or under-charges.

Verification & scope

A deterministic, bounded toy model with a stipulated contract; it makes no claim of conformance to any agency manual or standard. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
