[leetcode]125. Valid Palindrome[facebook]

Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.

For example,
"A man, a plan, a canal: Panama" is a palindrome.
"race a car" is not a palindrome.

Note:
Have you consider that the string might be empty? This is a good question to ask during an interview.

For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.

我的做法：

brute force，好的，不出意外地time out了...

认真看了一下，其实这个time out问题不是出在检查回文上，而是出在检查是不是字母数字上，所以用了正则表达式，就ok了。

速度还可以，暂时就不改进了。

就是一头一尾同时扫描，没有什么trivial的。
