Problem: 2452. Words Within Two Edits of Dictionary Level: Medium Find all query words that differ from at least one dictionary word in at most two character positions, and return them in their original order. Solution: - A transformation is valid if the Hamming distance between a query word and a dictionary word is ≤ 2. - For each query, iterate through all dictionary words and compute the character-wise mismatch count. - If any dictionary word has ≤ 2 mismatches, include the query in the result and stop further checks for that query (aka. early break).
