20. Valid Parentheses

question

Given a string s containing just the characters '(', ')', '{', '}', '[' and ']', determine if the input string is valid.

An input string is valid if:

Open brackets must be closed by the same type of brackets.
Open brackets must be closed in the correct order.
Every close bracket has a corresponding open bracket of the same type.

Example 1:

Input: s = "()"

Output: true

Example 2:

Input: s = "()[]{}"

Output: true

Example 3:

Input: s = "(]"

Output: false

Example 4:

Input: s = "([])"

Output: true

Example 5:

Input: s = "([)]"

Output: false

Constraints:

1 <= s.length <= 104
s consists of parentheses only '()[]{}'.

answer

class Solution {
    public boolean isValid(String s) {
        Stack<Character> stack = new Stack();
        for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
            char c = s.charAt(i);
            if (c == '(') {
                stack.push(')');
            } else if (c == '{') {
                stack.push('}');
            } else if (c == '[') {
                stack.push(']');
            } else {
                if (stack.isEmpty() || stack.pop() != c) {
                    return false;
                }
            }
        }
        return stack.isEmpty();
    }
}
