【思路】

1、使用栈检查符号是否成pair。

2、为了书写方便，将三对character放在map中使用较为方便。

【code】

public class Solution {
    public boolean isValid(String s) {
		HashMap<Character, Character> map = new HashMap<Character, Character>();
		map.put('(', ')');
		map.put('[', ']');
		map.put('{', '}');
		Stack<Character> stack = new Stack<Character>();

		for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {
			char curr = s.charAt(i);
			if (map.keySet().contains(curr)) {
				stack.push(curr);
			} else if (map.values().contains(curr)) {
				if (!stack.isEmpty() && map.get(stack.peek()) == curr) {
					stack.pop();
				} else {
					return false;
				}
			}
		}
		return stack.isEmpty();       
    }
}
