Call Center Query Handling

In a call center, each incoming query has a timestamp and takes a certain time to handle. You need to calculate the total time taken to handle all queries in order of arrival. Queries are handled in FIFO order. Input Format: - The first line contains an integer N (1 <= N <= 1000), the number of queries. - The next N lines contain an integer timestamp and an integer handling_time. Output Format: - A single integer representing the total time taken to handle all queries. Example: Input: 4 0 2 1 3 2 2 3 1 Output: 8
