Update two_num.py
### Summary This commit improves the `twoSum` function by enhancing readability, adhering to Python's PEP 8 guidelines, and improving modularity. The refactored code is now cleaner, easier to maintain, and better suited for future enhancements. ### Changes - Renamed `twoSum` → `two_sum` to align with PEP 8 naming conventions. - Improved the docstring to follow PEP 257 standards with clear descriptions, examples, and argument details. - Replaced the inline `print()` statement with a proper return value, ensuring the function behaves as expected when integrated into larger projects. - Enhanced variable naming by replacing `compl` with `complement` for improved clarity. - Added a `main` block for controlled script execution, making the code more modular and easier to test. - Improved the return logic by explicitly returning `False` when no valid pair is found, ensuring clearer outcomes for edge cases. ### Rationale These changes prioritize: - Improved readability for future maintainers. - Clearer logic to reduce ambiguity in variable names and return behavior. - Better code structure by separating functional logic from I/O actions. ### Impact - The function's behavior remains identical for expected use cases. - Code is now more Pythonic, modular, and maintainable. - The improved structure sets a stronger foundation for future enhancements, such as unit tests or expanded functionality.

Given an array of integers, return indices of the two numbers

This script defines a function that finds two indices in an array
