    1665 - Minimum Initial Energy to Finish Tasks.

    Hard

    You are given an array tasks where tasks[i] = [actuali, minimumi]:

    • actuali is the actual amount of energy you spend to finish the ith task.
    • minimumi is the minimum amount of energy you require to begin the ith task.

    For example, if the task is [10, 12] and your current energy is 11, you cannot start this task. However, if your current energy is 13, you can complete this task, and your energy will be 3 after finishing it.

    You can finish the tasks in any order you like.

    Return the minimum initial amount of energy you will need to finish all the tasks.

    Example 1:

    Input: tasks = [[1,2],[2,4],[4,8]]

    Output: 8

    Explanation:

    Starting with 8 energy, we finish the tasks in the following order:

    - 3rd task. Now energy = 8 - 4 = 4.
    
    - 2nd task. Now energy = 4 - 2 = 2.
    
    - 1st task. Now energy = 2 - 1 = 1.
    

    Notice that even though we have leftover energy, starting with 7 energy does not work because we cannot do the 3rd task.

    Example 2:

    Input: tasks = [[1,3],[2,4],[10,11],[10,12],[8,9]]

    Output: 32

    Explanation:

    Starting with 32 energy, we finish the tasks in the following order:

    - 1st task. Now energy = 32 - 1 = 31.
    
    - 2nd task. Now energy = 31 - 2 = 29.
    
    - 3rd task. Now energy = 29 - 10 = 19.
    
    - 4th task. Now energy = 19 - 10 = 9.
    
    - 5th task. Now energy = 9 - 8 = 1.
    

    Example 3:

    Input: tasks = [[1,7],[2,8],[3,9],[4,10],[5,11],[6,12]]

    Output: 27

    Explanation:

    Starting with 27 energy, we finish the tasks in the following order:

    - 5th task. Now energy = 27 - 5 = 22.
    
    - 2nd task. Now energy = 22 - 2 = 20.
    
    - 3rd task. Now energy = 20 - 3 = 17.
    
    - 1st task. Now energy = 17 - 1 = 16.
    
    - 4th task. Now energy = 16 - 4 = 12.
    
    - 6th task. Now energy = 12 - 6 = 6.
