There are n points on the number axis. For any closed interval [a, b], try to calculate the number of points falling within it.
Requirements:
0 ≤ n, m ≤ 5×10^5
For each query interval [a, b],
the coordinates of each point with a ≤ b are different
Input format:
the first line includes two integers: the total number of points n, and the number of queries m.
The second line contains n numbers, which are the coordinates of each point.
The following m lines each contain two integers: the left and right boundaries a and b of the query interval.
Output format:
For each query, output the number of points falling in the closed interval [a, b].
Input example:
5 2
1 3 7 9 11
4 6
7 12
Sample output:
0

code:
//本题的逻辑结构:线性表
//本题的存储结构:顺序
//解题思路和算法:二分查找,答案为大于右边界的个数-大于等于左边界的个数
//效率:时间复杂度O(n+mlogn)、空间复杂度O(n):
//测试数据:
