Describe your change:
The Activity Selection Problem is a classic greedy algorithm problem. Given a list of activities, each with a start and end time, the goal is to select the maximum number of non-overlapping activities that can be performed. The solution involves sorting the activities by their end times and then greedily selecting the first activity that finishes the earliest, ensuring no subsequent activity overlaps with the previously selected one.
This approach ensures an optimal solution by always prioritizing the earliest finishing activities, which leaves the most room for future activities.
