Given a string containing just the characters ‘(’ and ‘)’, find the length of the longest valid (well-formed) parentheses substring.
For “(()”, the longest valid parentheses substring is “()”, which has length = 2.
Another example is “)()())”, where the longest valid parentheses substring is “()()”, which has length = 4.
用栈,今天特别懒。。。不想写分析。。。这道题还有动态规划方法,日后补充吧
public static int longestValidParentheses(String s) {
LinkedList<Integer> stack=new LinkedList<Integer>();
int rst=0;
for(int i=0;i<s.length();i++){
if(s.charAt(i)=='(')
stack.push(i);
else{
if(!stack.isEmpty()&&s.charAt(stack.peek())=='('){
stack.pop();
rst=Math.max(rst, stack.isEmpty()?i+1:i-stack.peek());
}else {
stack.push(i);
}
}
}
return rst;
}
