Win After Last Round - Microsoft Top Interview Questions

You are given a list of integers nums of length n representing the current score of swimmers in a competition. There is one more round to swim and the first place winner for this round gets n points, second place n-1 points, etc. and the last place gets 1 point. Return the number of swimmers that can still win the competition after the last round. If you tie for first in points, this still counts as winning. Constraints n ≤ 100,000 where n is the length of nums Example 1 Input
