Maximum Height of a Triangle
You are given two integers red and blue representing the count of red and blue colored balls.
You are given two integers red and blue representing the count of red and blue colored balls. You have to arrange these balls to form a triangle such that the 1st row will have 1 ball, the 2nd row will have 2 balls, the 3rd row will have 3 balls, and so on.
All the balls in a particular row should be the same color, and adjacent rows should have different colors.
Return the maximum height of the triangle that can be achieved.
