Greedy Approach with Sorting

  1. Initialize an empty list differences to store the difference between reward1[i] and reward2[i] along with the index i.
  2. Iterate over the length of reward1 and reward2 arrays and append the difference and index as a tuple to differences.
  3. Sort differences in descending order based on the difference.
  4. Initialize total_points to 0.
  5. Iterate over the first k elements of the sorted differences list and add reward1[i] to total_points for each element.
  6. Iterate over the remaining elements of differences and add reward2[i] to total_points for each element.
  7. Return total_points as the maximum points the mice can achieve.
