LeetCode in Kotlin
1190. Reverse Substrings Between Each Pair of Parentheses
Medium
You are given a string s that consists of lower case English letters and brackets.
Reverse the strings in each pair of matching parentheses, starting from the innermost one.
Your result should not contain any brackets.
Example 1:
Input: s = “(abcd)”
Output: “dcba”
Example 2:
Input: s = “(u(love)i)”
Output: “iloveu”
Explanation: The substring “love” is reversed first, then the whole string is reversed.
Example 3:
Input: s = “(ed(et(oc))el)”
Output: “leetcode”
Explanation: First, we reverse the substring “oc”, then “etco”, and finally, the whole string.
Constraints:
1 <= s.length <= 2000sonly contains lower case English characters and parentheses.- It is guaranteed that all parentheses are balanced.
Solution
class Solution {
fun reverseParentheses(s: String): String {
val n = s.length
val sb = StringBuilder()
var i = 0
while (i < n) {
if (s[i] == '(') {
var l = 1
var r = 0
val idx = i
while (l != r) {
i++
if (s[i] == '(') {
l++
} else if (s[i] == ')') {
r++
}
}
val reversed = reverseParentheses(s.substring(idx + 1, i))
val temp = StringBuilder().append(reversed)
sb.append(temp.reverse())
} else {
sb.append(s[i])
}
i++
}
return sb.toString()
}
}
