You are given a series of video clips from a sporting event that lasted T
seconds. These video clips can be overlapping with each other and have varied
lengths.
Each video clip clips[i]
is an interval: it starts at time clips[i][0]
and ends at time clips[i][1]
. We can cut these clips into segments
freely: for example, a clip [0, 7]
can be cut into segments [0, 1] + [1,
3] + [3, 7]
.
Return the minimum number of clips needed so that we can cut the clips into segments that
cover the entire sporting event ([0, T]
). If the task is impossible,
return -1
.
Example 1:
Input: clips = [[0,2],[4,6],[8,10],[1,9],[1,5],[5,9]], T = 10 Output: 3 Explanation: We take the clips [0,2], [8,10], [1,9]; a total of 3 clips. Then, we can reconstruct the sporting event as follows: We cut [1,9] into segments [1,2] + [2,8] + [8,9]. Now we have segments [0,2] + [2,8] + [8,10] which cover the sporting event [0, 10].
Example 2:
Input: clips = [[0,1],[1,2]], T = 5 Output: -1 Explanation: We can't cover [0,5] with only [0,1] and [0,2].
Example 3:
Input: clips = [[0,1],[6,8],[0,2],[5,6],[0,4],[0,3],[6,7],[1,3],[4,7],[1,4],[2,5],[2,6],[3,4],[4,5],[5,7],[6,9]], T = 9 Output: 3 Explanation: We can take clips [0,4], [4,7], and [6,9].
Example 4:
Input: clips = [[0,4],[2,8]], T = 5 Output: 2 Explanation: Notice you can have extra video after the event ends.
Note:
1 <= clips.length <= 100
0 <= clips[i][0], clips[i][1] <= 100
0 <= T <= 100
