Comparison-based sorting algorithm is at best O(nlogn).
Note: Without sorting, an O(n) approach involving map/dict is still possible.

Hi, thank you for the review. I didn’t know that the sorted() function has O(n log n) time complexity. After googling it, I learned that this is because sorted() uses the Timsort algorithm.
I followed your suggestion and found a better algorithm to find sum in O(n) time by using set.
