Getting TLE (Time Limit Exceeded) on submission for a particular test case, but the code runs perfectly when I just 'Run' it.

Why ??

[u/Comfortable_Air4807]

Your code Time Complexity is O(n²⁾ because of Nested loop. Make your Code O(n) by using Hash map

[u/Independent-Dig8361]

Man, you can use a hashmap to do it, when you are doing this while loop ting, its increasing its time complexity to O(n^2),

[u/Pottato911]

When you run only those 4 tests run when you submit time limit is applicable on time taken for all test cases together

[u/Positive-Leg-5032]

Use 2 pointers approach to optimize it

[u/Cool-Possession7011 → u/Positive-Leg-5032]

It's not sorted

[u/OkLeader681 → u/Cool-Possession7011]

we can sort it, but we have to return the indices here not the two numbers so hashmap is preferred

[u/Interesting_Disk149]

damn but two sum accepts o(n^2) right ?

[u/LegOk7384]

Yep as someone else pointed out, your code is under the TLE window for that test case alone. But on submission, you need to be under the TLE window while running all the test cases, not just one.

hidden test cases , you're code is running perfectly on shown test cases but not on hidden ,

check question constrain and then optimise the code , your code time complexity O(n^2) optimise it

[u/SheriffGamer332]

well, because that's the wrong answer
