Interval Scheduling Maximization

You are given a list of intervals representing tasks, where each interval is defined by a start and end time. Your goal is to find the maximum number of non-overlapping tasks that can be scheduled. You can assume that tasks cannot be executed at the same time. Input format: - First line contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 100): number of tasks. - The next n lines, each containing two integers start and end, separated by a space (0 ≤ start < end ≤ 10^9). Output format: - Print a single integer representing the maximum number of non-overlapping tasks that can be scheduled. Example: Input: 4 1 3 2 5 4 6 7 8 Output: 3
