Problem Statement |
| Southern China is suffering from a heavily snowy winter. The heavy snow even causes the closure of an important highway connecting southern and northern China. You've got several reports containing the start and end points of highway segments covered by heavy snow. Given those reports as two int[]s startPoints and endPoints, you are to return the total length of highway segments covered by snow. Note that the reported segments may overlap.
