LeetCode 252. Meeting Rooms

Description

https://leetcode.com/problems/meeting-rooms/

Given an array of meeting time intervals where intervals[i] = [starti, endi], determine if a person could attend all meetings.

Example 1:

Input: intervals = [[0,30],[5,10],[15,20]]
Output: false

Example 2:

Input: intervals = [[7,10],[2,4]]
Output: true

Constraints:

• 0 <= intervals.length <= 104
• intervals[i].length == 2
• 0 <= starti < endi <= 106

Explanation

Sort intervals base on starting time first. Then check any interval overlaps with the previous interval.

Python Solution

class Solution:
    def canAttendMeetings(self, intervals: List[List[int]]) -> bool:
        
        intervals = sorted(intervals, key=lambda interval:interval[0])
        
        prev = None
        
        for interval in intervals:
            if prev and interval[0] < prev[1]:
                return False
            
            prev = interval
            
        
        return True
