Problem:
Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers such that they add up to a specific target.
You may assume that each input would have exactly one solution, and you may not use the same element twice.
Ex.
Given nums = [2, 7, 11, 15], target = 9,
Because nums[0] + nums[1] = 2 + 7 = 9,
return [0, 1].
'''
class Solution:
def twoSum(self, nums: List[int], target: int) -> List[int]:
wanted_nums = {}
# Iterating through a list of numbers
for i in range(len(nums)):
# If number in wanted_nums it means we've got the sum!
if nums[i] in wanted_nums:
return [wanted_nums[nums[i]], i]
# If not, we store the difference (so the number we seek) along with an index
else:
wanted_nums[target - nums[i]] = i
