Problem
Brackets: Determine whether a given string of parentheses (multiple types) is properly nested. A string S consisting of N characters is considered to be properly nested if any of the following conditions is true: S is empty; S has the form "(U)" or "[U]" or "{U}" where U is a properly nested string; S has the form "VW" where V and W are properly nested strings. For example, the string "{[()()]}" is properly nested but "([)()]" is not. Write a function: class Solution { public int solution(String S); } that, given a string S consisting of N characters, returns 1 if S is properly nested and 0 otherwise. For example, given S = "{[()()]}", the function should return 1 and given S = "([)()]", the function should return 0, as explained above. Write an efficient algorithm for the following assumptions: N is an integer within the range [0..200,000]; string S is made only of the following characters: '(', '{', '[', ']', '}' and/or ')'.Solution
