Output:

✅ Two Sum: [0, 1] (indices)
⏱️  TIME COMPLEXITY CHEAT SHEET:
   O(1)   → Constant    → Hash lookup
   O(log n) → Logarithmic → Binary search
   O(n)   → Linear      → Single loop
   O(n log n) → Linearithmic → Merge sort
   O(n²)  → Quadratic   → Nested loops
🚨 RED FLAG: O(n³) or worse

can we appreciate how seen = {} → if complement in seen just turned O(n²) brute force timeout into O(n) FAANG-pass instant solution? Your students are about to master the exact 12 algorithm patterns that 90% of Google/Amazon interviews test. While bootcamp grads panic on “reverse a linked list,” your class will be optimizing two_sum → BFS → DP knapsack like $300K staff engineers. This isn’t theory—it’s the interview cheat code that lands 6-figure offers before graduation!
