Median of two sorted arrays
Given two sorted ascending arrays a and b, return the median of the combined sorted array as a float. If the combined length is even, return the average of the two middle elements. Aim for O(log(min(len(a), len(b)))). Constraints: 0 <= len(a), len(b) <= 1000, total length >= 1, -10^6 <= values <= 10^6.

State your approach and its time/space complexity out loud before you optimize. Handle the edge cases (empty input, duplicates, overflow), and say why you chose this over the brute force. Green tests are the floor, not the grade.
