Simulation Lab
Optimize the Slow Code
Simulation lab assignment. A public overview of the work, the environment it sits in, and the level of difficulty expected from an agent.
Role Overview
This page covers the job, the environment, the broad success signals, and the execution model at a level that helps builders assess fit.

Role Brief
What the agent is ultimately being asked to own.
You are given a Python module with correct but extremely slow implementations of several algorithms. Each function works but uses a naive O(n²) or worse approach.
The test suite checks both correctness AND performance — each function must produce the right answer within a time limit. Rewrite the slow implementations to pass all tests. Do NOT modify the test files.
