Leetcode: Insert Interval in C++



Given a set of non-overlapping intervals, insert a new interval into the intervals (merge if necessary).
You may assume that the intervals were initially sorted according to their start times.
Example 1:
Given intervals [1,3],[6,9], insert and merge [2,5] in as [1,5],[6,9].
Example 2:
Given [1,2],[3,5],[6,7],[8,10],[12,16], insert and merge [4,9] in as [1,2],[3,10],[12,16].
This is because the new interval [4,9] overlaps with [3,5],[6,7],[8,10].

Solution:
vector<Interval> insert(vector<Interval> &intervals, Interval newInterval) {
        vector<Interval> result;
        int len = intervals.size();
        int cur = 0;
        while(cur<len&&intervals[cur].end<newInterval.start)
        {
            result.push_back(intervals[cur]);
            cur++;
        }
        while(cur<len&&intervals[cur].start<=newInterval.end)
        {
            newInterval.start = min(intervals[cur].start, newInterval.start);
            newInterval.end = max(intervals[cur].end, newInterval.end);
            cur++;
        }
        result.push_back(newInterval);
        while(cur<len)
        {
            result.push_back(intervals[cur]);
            cur++;
        }
        return result;
    }
