385. Mini Parser - jiejackyzhang/leetcode-note GitHub Wiki

Given a nested list of integers represented as a string, implement a parser to deserialize it.

Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers or other lists.

Note: You may assume that the string is well-formed:

1. String is non-empty.
2. String does not contain white spaces.
3. String contains only digits 0-9, [, - ,, ].

Example 1:

Given s = "324",

You should return a NestedInteger object which contains a single integer 324.

Example 2:

Given s = "[123,[456,[789]]]",

Return a NestedInteger object containing a nested list with 2 elements:

1. An integer containing value 123.
2. A nested list containing two elements:
    i.  An integer containing value 456.
    ii. A nested list with one element:
         a. An integer containing value 789.

解题思路为采用stack。

1. If encounters '[', start a new NestedInteger and add it to current NestedInteger, then push it to stack.
2. If encounters ']', end current NestedInteger and pop a NestedInteger from stack to continue.
3. If encounters ',', append a new number to current NestedInteger, if this comma is not right after a brackets.
