链接http://codercareer.blogspot.com/2011/12/no-27-area-of-rectangles.html 中列出了一个解决方案，用于查找多个矩形的总面积，这样重叠区域只计算一次。
上面的解决方案可以扩展为只计算重叠区域（即使重叠区域被多个矩形覆盖，也只计算一次），每对连续的垂直扫描线都有水平扫描线。
如果目标只是找出所有矩形覆盖的总面积，则不需要水平扫描线，只需将两条垂直扫描线之间的所有矩形合并即可给出该区域。
另一方面，如果您只想计算重叠区域，则需要水平扫描线来找出垂直（y1，y2）扫描线之间重叠的矩形数量。
这是我用 Java 实现的解决方案的工作代码。
