You are playing a game that contains multiple characters, and each of the characters has two main properties: attack and defense. You are given a 2D integer array properties where properties[i] = [attacki, defensei] represents the properties of the ith character in the game.

\n\n

A character is said to be weak if any other character has both attack and defense levels strictly greater than this character's attack and defense levels. More formally, a character i is said to be weak if there exists another character j where attackj > attacki and defensej > defensei.

\n\n

Return the number of weak characters.

\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: properties = [[5,5],[6,3],[3,6]]\nOutput: 0\nExplanation: No character has strictly greater attack and defense than the other.\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: properties = [[2,2],[3,3]]\nOutput: 1\nExplanation: The first character is weak because the second character has a strictly greater attack and defense.\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\nInput: properties = [[1,5],[10,4],[4,3]]\nOutput: 1\nExplanation: The third character is weak because the second character has a strictly greater attack and defense.\n
