Non-overlapping Intervals

What is Non-overlapping Intervals?
Given a list of intervals, find the minimum number of intervals to remove so that the rest do not overlap. You sort by end time and greedily keep every interval that does not conflict with the last kept one. This problem teaches the classic interval scheduling insight: always prefer the interval that ends earliest, since it leaves the most room for future intervals.
