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(Aconcatenated withB), whereAandBare valid strings, or - It can be written as
(A), whereAis a valid string.
Given a parentheses string, return the minimum number of parentheses we must add to make the resulting string valid.
class Solution {
public:
int minAddToMakeValid(string S) {
int left = 0, right = 0;
for (auto ch : S) {
if (ch == '(') {
left++;
} else if (ch == ')') {
if (left > 0) {
left--;
} else {
right++;
}
}
}
return left + right;
}
};
