Find K Pairs with Smallest Sums

Explore how to identify the k pairs with the smallest sums from two sorted integer arrays using efficient K-way merge algorithms. This lesson helps you understand the problem constraints and develop solutions that manage sorted lists, applying coding design patterns to optimize performance and handle edge cases.

Statement

You are given two integer arrays, list1 and list2, sorted in non-decreasing order, and an integer, k.

A pair (u, v)(u, \space v) is defined as one element uu chosen from list1 and one element v ...
