Description:
Given a string S of ‘(’ and ‘)’ parentheses, we add the minimum number of parentheses ( ‘(’ or ‘)’, and in any positions ) so that the resulting parentheses string is valid.

Formally, a parentheses string is valid if and only if:

  • It is the empty string, or
  • It can be written as AB (A concatenated with B), where A and B are valid strings, or
  • It can be written as (A), where A is a valid string.

Given a parentheses string, return the minimum number of parentheses we must add to make the resulting string valid.

Example 1:

Input: "())"
Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: "((("
Output: 3

Example 3:

Input: "()"
Output: 0

Example 4:

Input: "()))(("
Output: 4

Note:

  • S.length <= 1000
  • S only consists of ‘(’ and ‘)’ characters.

题意:给定一个只包含’(‘和’)‘字符的字符串,计算最少增加多少个’(‘或’)'使得这个字符串中的括号可以正确的匹配;

解法:对于判断括号是否正确匹配,我们通常是用栈来实现的;那么,这一道题我们同样可以利用栈来实现;遍历字符串,每次将左括号入栈,遇到右括号时,如果栈不为空则正确匹配到了左括号,否则,我们需要向字符串中增加一个左括号;这样,遍历完数组以后,我们还需要加上栈中还剩余的左括号的数量(即栈的长度),说明还缺少一定数量的右括号;

Java
class Solution {
    public int minAddToMakeValid(String S) {
        int result = 0;
        Stack<Character> parentheses = new Stack<>();
        for (int i = 0; i < S.length(); i++) {
            if (S.charAt(i) == '(') parentheses.push(S.charAt(i));
            else if (!parentheses.empty()) parentheses.pop();
            else result++;
        }
        return result + parentheses.size();
    }
}
