题目:
Given a collection of intervals, find the minimum number of intervals you need to remove to make the rest of the intervals non-overlapping.
Note:
You may assume the interval’s end point is always bigger than its start point.
Intervals like [1,2] and [2,3] have borders “touching” but they don’t overlap each other.
Example 1:
Input: [ [1,2], [2,3], [3,4], [1,3] ]
Output: 1
Explanation: [1,3] can be removed and the rest of intervals are non-overlapping.
Example 2:
Input: [ [1,2], [1,2], [1,2] ]
Output: 2
Explanation: You need to remove two [1,2] to make the rest of intervals non-overlapping.
Example 3:
Input: [ [1,2], [2,3] ]
Output: 0
Explanation: You don’t need to remove any of the intervals since they’re already non-overlapping.
贪心。
同样是根据右端点排序,然后顺序加入,无法加入的就删除。
这样可以保证,在删除同样多的区间的前提下,覆盖区间的右端点最靠左。
bool cmpt(const Interval &a, const Interval &b) {
if (a.end == b.end) return a.start < b.start;
return a.end < b.end;
}
class Solution {
public:
int eraseOverlapIntervals(vector<Interval>& intervals) {
if (intervals.size() == 0) return 0;
sort(intervals.begin(), intervals.end(), cmpt);
int last = intervals[0].end;
int ans = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < intervals.size(); i++) {
if (intervals[i].start >= last) last = intervals[i].end;
else ans++;
}
return ans;
}
};
