Link to problem: https://leetcode.com/problems/assign-cookies/

Intuition behind solution: sort both your arrays. Have one pointer to point at the largest cookie and one pointer to point at the greediest child. While both pointers are greater than or equal to 0, try to assign cookies. If you can give the ith cookie to the jth child, decrement both pointers and increment your return variable, content children. If you can't, i.e. the cookie is too small for the greedy child, try assigning that cookie to the next greedy child (which means decrement j). Once your loop breaks return your number of content children.
