Java > Recursion-1 > nestParen
prev  |  next  |  chance

Given a string, return true if it is a nesting of zero or more pairs of parenthesis, like "(())" or "((()))". Suggestion: check the first and last chars, and then recur on what's inside them.

nestParen("(())") → true
nestParen("((()))") → true
nestParen("(((x))") → false

...Save, Compile, Run
