leetcode 125 —— Valid Palindrome

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.

思路：双端扫描，有非字母数字就跳过。

class Solution {
public:
	bool isPalindrome(string s) {
		if (s.empty()) return true;
		int l = 0;
		int r = s.size() - 1;
		while (l <= r){
			while (l<=r&&!isalnum(s[l]))
				l++;
			while (l <= r&&!isalnum(s[r]))
				r--;
			if (l > r) break;
			if (s[l] == s[r]||s[l]+32==s[r]||s[l]==s[r]+32){
				l++;
				r--;
			}
			else
				return false;
		}
		return true;
	}
