Maximize Similarity

In the world of Amazon's vast inventory management, you face a challenge of optimizing two inventories, inv1 and inv2, each containing n elements.

Your goal is to maximize the similarity between these inventories. The similarity is measured by the number of indices i (0 ≤ i < n) where inv1[i] equals inv2[i].

Amazon provides a unique tool, the "Inventory Optimizer". This tool allows you to perform the following operation:

  • Select two distinct indices i and j (where 0 ≤ i, j < n and i ≠ j), provided that the jth element of inv1 is positive.
  • Apply the operation: add 1 to inv1[i] and subtract 1 from inv1[j].
  • Using the Inventory Optimizer, you can perform this operation any number of times (including zero) to maximize the similarity between inv1 and inv2.

    Example 1:

    Input:  inv1 = [2, 4, 1], inv2 = [1, 2, 3]
    Output: 2
    Explanation:
    • Apply the operation on indices i = 2 and j = 0, which makes inv1 = [1, 4, 2].
    • Next, apply the operation on indices i = 2 and j = 1, which updates inv1 = [1, 3, 3].
    Now, there are two indices, i = 0 and i = 2, for which inv1[i] = inv2[i]. Since it's impossible to make the elements at all indices of the two arrays equal, the answer is 2.
    Constraints:
    • 1 <= n <= 10^5
    • 1 <= inv1[i], inv2[i] <= 10^4
