# 合并区间

<p>以数组 <code>intervals</code> 表示若干个区间的集合，其中单个区间为 <code>intervals[i] = [start<sub>i</sub>, end<sub>i</sub>]</code> 。请你合并所有重叠的区间，并返回一个不重叠的区间数组，该数组需恰好覆盖输入中的所有区间。</p><p> </p><p><strong>示例 1：</strong></p><pre><strong>输入：</strong>intervals = [[1,3],[2,6],[8,10],[15,18]]<strong><br />输出：</strong>[[1,6],[8,10],[15,18]]<strong><br />解释：</strong>区间 [1,3] 和 [2,6] 重叠, 将它们合并为 [1,6].</pre><p><strong>示例 2：</strong></p><pre><strong>输入：</strong>intervals = [[1,4],[4,5]]<strong><br />输出：</strong>[[1,5]]<strong><br />解释：</strong>区间 [1,4] 和 [4,5] 可被视为重叠区间。</pre><p> </p><p><strong>提示：</strong></p><ul>	<li><code>1 <= intervals.length <= 10<sup>4</sup></code></li>	<li><code>intervals[i].length == 2</code></li>	<li><code>0 <= start<sub>i</sub> <= end<sub>i</sub> <= 10<sup>4</sup></code></li></ul>

以下程序实现了这一功能，请你填补空白处内容：
