The K-th Filtered Reading

A scientific sensor stores temperature readings in a BST. You need to find the K-th smallest reading that is strictly greater than a threshold T. If there are fewer than K such readings, output -1. Example: Input: 10 5 15 3 7; 4 2 Output: 7 Explanation: Readings > 4 are {5, 7, 10, 15}. Sorted, the 2nd one is 7.
