Parcel Delivery

You are tasked with scheduling the delivery of parcels to different locations. Each location has a designated time window during which the parcel can be delivered. Given a list of time windows for each location, your goal is to maximize the number of parcels delivered. Each time window is a pair of integers [start, end]. You cannot deliver to overlapping time windows. Input: The first line contains an integer n (1 ≤ n ≤ 1000) - the number of locations. The next n lines contain two integers each (0 ≤ start < end ≤ 10000) representing the time windows. Output: Print the maximum number of locations that can receive parcels delivered within their time windows. Example: Input: 3 1 4 2 5 5 6 Output: 2
