1288\. Remove Covered Intervals
Medium
Given an array `intervals` where intervals[i] = [li, ri]
represent the interval [li, ri)
, remove all intervals that are covered by another interval in the list.
The interval `[a, b)` is covered by the interval `[c, d)` if and only if `c <= a` and `b <= d`.
Return _the number of remaining intervals_.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** intervals = [[1,4],[3,6],[2,8]]
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** Interval [3,6] is covered by [2,8], therefore it is removed.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** intervals = [[1,4],[2,3]]
**Output:** 1
**Constraints:**
* `1 <= intervals.length <= 1000`
* `intervals[i].length == 2`
* 0 <= li < ri <= 105
* All the given intervals are **unique**.
