LeetCode - Height Checker Solution

`A school is trying to take an annual photo of all the students. The students are asked to stand in a single file line in non-decreasing order by height. Let this ordering be represented by the integer array expected where expected[i] is the expected height of the ith student in line.

You are given an integer array heights representing the current order that the students are standing in. Each heights[i] is the height of the ith student in line (0-indexed).

Return the number of indices where heights[i] != expected[i].`

**Example 1:**

Input: heights = [1,1,4,2,1,3]
Output: 3
Explanation: 
heights:  [1,1,4,2,1,3]
expected: [1,1,1,2,3,4]
Indices 2, 4, and 5 do not match.

**Example 2:**

Input: heights = [5,1,2,3,4]
Output: 5
Explanation:
heights:  [5,1,2,3,4]
expected: [1,2,3,4,5]
All indices do not match.
Example 3:

Input: heights = [1,2,3,4,5]
Output: 0
Explanation:
heights:  [1,2,3,4,5]
expected: [1,2,3,4,5]
All indices match.


**Constraints:**

1 <= heights.length <= 100
1 <= heights[i] <= 100

SOLUTION :
Python Code:

class Solution:
    def heightChecker(self, heights: List[int]) -> int:
        expected = sorted(heights)
        count = 0
        for i, (height, expect) in enumerate(zip(heights, expected)):
            if height != expect:
                count +=1
        return count
