Interval List Intersections
Given two lists of closed intervals, each list of intervals is pairwise disjoint and in sorted order.Return the intersection of these two interval lists.
(Formally, a closed interval [a, b] (with a <= b) denotes the set of real numbers x with a <= x <= b. The intersection of two closed intervals is a set of real numbers that is either empty, or can be represented as a closed interval. For example, the intersection of [1, 3] and [2, 4] is [2, 3].)
Example 1:
Input: A = [[0,2],[5,10],[13,23],[24,25]], B = [[1,5],[8,12],[15,24],[25,26]] Output: [[1,2],[5,5],[8,10],[15,23],[24,24],[25,25]] Reminder: The inputs and the desired output are lists of Interval objects, and not arrays or lists.
Note:
0 <= A.length < 1000
0 <= B.length < 1000
0 <= A[i].start, A[i].end, B[i].start, B[i].end < 10^9
NOTE: input types have been changed on April 15, 2019. Please reset to default code definition to get new method signature.
SOLUTION IN JAVA :
class Solution {
public int[][] intervalIntersection(int[][] A, int[][] B) {
List<int[]> ans = new ArrayList();
int i = 0, j = 0;
while (i < A.length && j < B.length) {
int lo = Math.max(A[i][0], B[j][0]);
int hi = Math.min(A[i][1], B[j][1]);
if (lo <= hi)
ans.add(new int[]{lo, hi});
if (A[i][1] < B[j][1])
i++;
else
j++;
}
return ans.toArray(new int[ans.size()][]);
}
}
