Challenge 9: Check for Balanced Parentheses using a Stack

Challenge 9: Check for Balanced Parentheses using a Stack

Try to solve the Valid Parentheses problem.

Statement

Given a string, exp, which may consist of opening and closing parentheses. Your task is to check whether or not the string contains valid parenthesization.

The conditions to validate are as follows:

Every opening parenthesis should be closed by the same kind of parenthesis. Therefore, {) and [(]) strings are invalid.
Every opening parenthesis must be ...
