4. Median of Two Sorted Arrays
Find the median of two sorted arrays in O(log(m+n)) time. Hugging Face uses this to test binary search on abstract search spaces — a skill that transfers to efficiently finding threshold values in calibration curves for ML model confidence scoring.

127. Word Ladder
Find the shortest word transformation sequence from begin to end using a dictionary. Hugging Face uses this BFS shortest-path problem to probe graph construction from implicit edges — the same skill needed to build token neighborhood graphs for nearest-neighbor search in embedding spaces.
