Parenthesis Checker Java

PROGRAM TO CHECK FOR BALANCED BRACKETS IN AN EXPRESSION USING STACK



import java.util.*;
  
public class BalancedBrackets {
  
    // function to check if brackets are balanced
    static boolean areBracketsBalanced(String expr)
    {
        // Using ArrayDeque is faster than using Stack class
        Deque<Character> stack
            = new ArrayDeque<Character>();
  
        // Traversing the Expression
        for (int i = 0; i < expr.length(); i++) 
        {
            char x = expr.charAt(i);
  
            if (x == '(' || x == '[' || x == '{'
            {
                // Push the element in the stack
                stack.push(x);
                continue;
            }
  
            // IF current current character is not opening
            // bracket, then it must be closing. So stack
            // cannot be empty at this point.
            if (stack.isEmpty())
                return false;
            char check;
            switch (x) {
            case ')':
                check = stack.pop();
                if (check == '{' || check == '[')
                    return false;
                break;
  
            case '}':
                check = stack.pop();
                if (check == '(' || check == '[')
                    return false;
                break;
  
            case ']':
                check = stack.pop();
                if (check == '(' || check == '{')
                    return false;
                break;
            }
        }
  
        // Check Empty Stack
        return (stack.isEmpty());
    }
  
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        String expr = "([{}])";
  
        // Function call
        if (areBracketsBalanced(expr))
            System.out.println("Balanced ");
        else
            System.out.println("Not Balanced ");
    }
}


OUTPUT:
Balanced
