Specific questions asked
You are given n intervals, where l[i] and r[i] are the two boundaries for the interval (and l[i] <= r[i] is guaranteed). You are also given Q queries, where in each query we are given an integer x. We need to answer how many intervals this x falls into. Constraints: 1 <= l[i], r[i], x <= 1e9 and 1 <= n, Q <= 1e5
