Today, I will try to create a C# method that would validate if the brakcets, parenthesis and braces of a given mathematical equation is properly written, balanced and complete. The goal of this excercise is to utilize the stack data structure to write an algorithm with a linear growth. Any suggestions on how to do this using logarithmic algorithms are welcome. The method should return true for the following inputs: (x + y) - ((z * y) + x) {(1 / 2) + (y / z)} - ([g + z]) - (x + y) [x + y] - (5 * x) The method should return false for the following inputs: (x + 3] {(y + z)] (x + y) + [g(5])] Solution Clone it from GitHub Below is a class that validates if the brackets, parenthesis and curly braces of a formula are properly written and has a counterpart. ...
