# --description--
Design a cash register drawer function `checkCashRegister()` that accepts purchase price as the first argument (`price`), payment as the second argument (`cash`), and cash-in-drawer (`cid`) as the third argument.
`cid` is a 2D array listing available currency.
The `checkCashRegister()` function should always return an object with a `status` key and a `change` key.
Return `{status: "INSUFFICIENT_FUNDS", change: []}` if cash-in-drawer is less than the change due, or if you cannot return the exact change.
Return `{status: "CLOSED", change: [...]}` with cash-in-drawer as the value for the key `change` if it is equal to the change due.
Otherwise, return `{status: "OPEN", change: [...]}`, with the change due in coins and bills, sorted in highest to lowest order, as the value of the `change` key.
<table><tbody><tr><th>Currency Unit</th><th>Amount</th></tr><tr><td>Penny</td><td>$0.01 (PENNY)</td></tr><tr><td>Nickel</td><td>$0.05 (NICKEL)</td></tr><tr><td>Dime</td><td>$0.1 (DIME)</td></tr><tr><td>Quarter</td><td>$0.25 (QUARTER)</td></tr><tr><td>Dollar</td><td>$1 (ONE)</td></tr><tr><td>Five Dollars</td><td>$5 (FIVE)</td></tr><tr><td>Ten Dollars</td><td>$10 (TEN)</td></tr><tr><td>Twenty Dollars</td><td>$20 (TWENTY)</td></tr><tr><td>One-hundred Dollars</td><td>$100 (ONE HUNDRED)</td></tr></tbody></table>
See below for an example of a cash-in-drawer array:
```js
[
["PENNY", 1.01],
["NICKEL", 2.05],
["DIME", 3.1],
["QUARTER", 4.25],
["ONE", 90],
["FIVE", 55],
["TEN", 20],
["TWENTY", 60],
["ONE HUNDRED", 100]
]
```
