Get number of times multiple intervals overlap about portion HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi,

I'm not sure I understood exactly what you would like to have at the end, but have a look at IntervalDict.combine. E.g.:

output = P.IntervalDict()
for interval in plans:
    i = P.closed(interval['start'], interval['end'])
    d = P.IntervalDict({i: 1})
    output = output.combine(d, how=lambda x,y: x+y)

Given all the things that happen in combine, do not expect it to work fast on large list of intervals, though.

It seems now I'm getting the number of times the atomic interval was overlapped. I understand now the combine should be done between each two intervals to decide what value should I get as a result. That is really powerful.

Thanks a lot for this great library for handling intervals in python!

You're welcome :-)
