Two Sum is the #1 LeetCode problem — and most people still solve it the slow way. This video shows the O(n) Hash Map complement approach, explained visually.
What you'll learn:
✅ Why the brute force O(n²) nested loop fails in interviews
✅ The complement trick: target - num = what we're looking for
✅ How a "seen" Hash Map gives you O(n) one-pass solution
✅ Visual walkthrough with nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9
✅ Clean Python implementation
