Lemonade Change 
At a lemonade stand, each lemonade costs $5. Customers are standing in a queue to buy from you and order one at a time (in the order specified by bills). Each customer will only buy one lemonade and pay with either a $5, $10, or $20 bill. You must provide the correct change to each customer so that the net transaction is that the customer pays $5.
Note that you do not have any change in hand at first.
Given an integer array bills where bills[i] is the bill the ith customer pays, return true if you can provide every customer with the correct change, or false otherwise.
Example 1:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
**Input:** bills = [5,5,5,10,20]
**Output:** true
**Explanation:**
From the first 3 customers, we collect three $5 bills in order.
From the fourth customer, we collect a $10 bill and give back a $5.
From the fifth customer, we give a $10 bill and a $5 bill.
Since all customers got correct change, we output true.
Example 2:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
**Input:** bills = [5,5,10,10,20]
**Output:** false
**Explanation:**
From the first two customers in order, we collect two $5 bills.
For the next two customers in order, we collect a $10 bill and give back a $5 bill.
For the last customer, we can not give the change of $15 back because we only have two $10 bills.
Since not every customer received the correct change, the answer is false.
Constraints:
1
2
1 <= bills.length <= 105
bills[i] is either 5, 10, or 20.
