You are given the schedule of 'N' meetings with their start time 'Start[i]' and end time 'End[i]'.


You have only 1 meeting room. So, you need to return the maximum number of meetings you can organize.


Note:
The start time of one chosen meeting can’t be equal to the end time of the other chosen meeting.


For example:
'N' = 3, Start = [1, 3, 6], End = [4, 8, 7].

You can organize a maximum of 2 meetings. Meeting number 1 from 1 to 4, Meeting number 3 from 6 to 7.
