Problem

Explain what the output would be for pointer-related code in different scenarios.

Represent each scenario with initially allocated pointer names and ordered operations. Support alias, rebind, write, increment, and read; aliases share storage, while rebinding changes only the pointer. Return the values produced by all read operations in order for each scenario.

Function signature: def pointer_outputs(scenarios): Input is a list of scenario dictionaries. Each has initial, a name-to-integer mapping, and operations, a list of operation strings. Output is a list of read-value lists.

Constraints

1 <= number of scenarios <= 1000
1 <= number of initial pointers per scenario <= 1000
1 <= number of operations per scenario <= 1000
Pointer names contain no whitespace
Every referenced pointer name already exists when an operation executes
Values and write operands are integers

Function Signature

def pointer_outputs(scenarios):
