Problem 1074. Property dispute!
Two neighbors have rectangular plots of land A and B. The surveyors give you the coordinates of each. If they overlap, there is a property dispute, and you must return the coordinates of the disputed region. If there is no conflict, return the empty set [].
Suppose A and B look like this.
*--------* | A | | *--------* | | | | | | | B | | | | | | *--------* | | *--------*
We will give rectangle coordinates in [xLow yLow width height] format. So
A = [0 0 5 10] B = [3 2 6 6]
Then you should return rectangle that corresponds to the overlapping region.
C = [3 2 2 6]
