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
分析:
直接把左括号进栈,遇到右括号时,如果栈里有左括号就弹出,否则需要加上右括号的个数。最后还要加上栈里面左括号的个数。
python:
class Solution(object):
def minAddToMakeValid(self, S):
"""
:type S: str
:rtype: int
"""
res = 0
stack = []
for c in S:
if c == '(':
stack.append('(')
else:
if stack:
stack.pop()
else:
res += 1
return res + len(stack)
