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 withB
), whereA
andB
are valid strings, or - It can be written as
(A)
, whereA
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.
题目理解:
给定一个只含有左括号和右括号的数组,判断还需要添加多少个括号才能时得括号合法
解题思路:
分别找出无法匹配的左括号和无法匹配的右括号就可以了,注意")("这种情况是不能匹配的
代码如下:
class Solution {
public int minAddToMakeValid(String S) {
int a = 0, b = 0;
for(char ch : S.toCharArray()){
if(ch == '(')
a++;
else{
if(a > 0)
a--;
else
b++;
}
}
return a + b;
}
}
