    hello, sorry for that :), here is my code:

    #include <bits/stdc++.h>
    #define ll long long
    #define ull unsigned long long
    #define ff first
    #define ss second
    #define all(a) a.begin(), a.end()
    #define iinf INT_MAX
    #define pi pair<int,int>
    #define endl '\n'
    #define ld long double
    #define linf LONG_LONG_MAX
    #include<ext/pb_ds/assoc_container.hpp>
    #include<ext/pb_ds/tree_policy.hpp>
    using namespace __gnu_pbds;
    using namespace std;
    template<class T>
    using ordered_set = tree<T,null_type,less_equal<T>,rb_tree_tag,tree_order_statistics_node_update>;
    /*
    // find_by_order, order_of_key
    */
    void fastio(){ios_base::sync_with_stdio(false);cin.tie(0);cout.tie(0);}
    void file(){
    #ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE
        freopen("in.txt", "r", stdin); freopen("out.txt", "w", stdout);
    #endif
    }
     
    #define int ll
    #define mod (int)(1e9+7)
    int n,k;
    int t[300007];
    int dp[300007];
    int best(int cur) {
        if(cur == n) return 0;
        int &ret = dp[cur];
        if(ret != -1) return ret;
        ret = 1 + best(cur+1);
        if(t[cur] != -1) {
            for(int i = cur+1; i<=t[cur]; i++) {
                ret = min(ret,best(i));
            }
     
        }
        return ret;
    }
    void solve1() {
     
     
     
    }
     
     
    void solve() {
        cin >> n >> k;
        memset(t, -1, sizeof(t));
        memset(dp, -1, sizeof(dp));
        for(int i = 0; i<k; i++) {
            int a,b; cin >> a >> b;
            t[a] = b;
        }
        cout << best(1) << endl;
     
     
     
    }
     
    signed main() {
     
        file();
        fastio();
        int t = 1;
        cin >> t;
        while(t--) solve();
     
    }

      2 declarations of $$$t$$$? One as an array and another as an input integer? Looks more like Compile Error than WA to me...

        yeah i see, but unfortunately it wasn't compile error, when i used t in main the compiler took the block scope one instead of the global var so it worked

You actually don't need DP to solve this problem.

Think of it like this, Bus Stops means that you have segments in the form $$$(li, ri)$$$. In these segments you don't need to walk.

This means that if consecutive segments (let's say $$$(li, ri)$$$ & $$$(lj, rj)$$$ assuming $$$ri<=lj$$$ and $$$rj>=ri$$$) are intersecting you don't need to walk in the segment $$$(li, rj)$$$ at all.

So now this problem becomes for the distance (1, n) how many places have no segments. That is the answer. For merging segments you can sort and merge, I think it's pretty well known.
