Valid Parentheses
Last updated
What is Valid Parentheses?
Given a string of brackets, determine if it is valid, meaning every opening bracket is closed by the same type in the correct order. You push opening brackets onto a stack and pop when you see a closing bracket, checking for a match. This is the canonical stack problem and teaches you the key idea: a stack naturally tracks things that need a future match.
