Non-overlapping Intervals
Problem statement
Given an array of intervals intervals where intervals[i] = [starti, endi], return the minimum number of intervals you need to remove to make the rest of the intervals non-overlapping.
Example 1:
Input: intervals = [[1,2],[2,3],[3,4],[1,3]]Output: 1Explanation: [1,3] can be removed and the rest of the intervals are non-overlapping.
Example 2:
Input: intervals = [[1,2],[1,2],[1,2]]Output: 2Explanation: You need to remove two [1,2] to make the rest of the intervals non-overlapping.
Example 3:
Input: intervals = [[1,2],[2,3]]Output: 0Explanation: You don't need to remove any of the intervals since they're already non-overlapping.
Constraints:
1 <= intervals.length <= 105intervals[i].length == 2-5 * 104 <= starti < endi <= 5 * 104
My solution
/**
* @param {number[][]} intervals
* @return {number}
*/
var eraseOverlapIntervals = function(intervals) {
intervals.sort((a,b) => a[1] - b[1]);
// console.log(intervals)
let count = 0;
let current = intervals[0]
for (let i = 1; i < intervals.length; i++) {
if (intervals[i][0] < current[1]) {
count++
}
else {
current = intervals[i]
}
}
return count;
};
