Two Sum With Optimal Complexity | Dataford Interview Questions

Given an array of integers, find the pair that sums to a specific target value with optimal time complexity.

Return the indices of the two distinct elements whose values add to target. Return an empty list if no pair exists. The input is nums, an integer array, and target, an integer. The output is a two-element list of indices.

Constraints

2 <= nums.length <= 10000
-1000000000 <= nums[i] <= 1000000000
-1000000000 <= target <= 1000000000
Return any valid pair if multiple pairs exist
Do not use the same element twice

Function Signature

def find_pair_sum(nums, target):
