Woburn Challenge 2002

Finally, the monkeys have made a breakthrough. During a routine trip to the summit of the Enchanted Tree to gather sustenance (in the form of bananas) for the Head-Monkey, a "Tiny" helper-monkey found a sheet of paper, left behind by some cows, discussing their plan of attack against the monkeys. Now Tiny was a clever little monkey and knew to deliver this information to the Head-Monkey in order to receive a reward. Upon delivery, Tiny did receive his reward: An assignment to code a neural net in 5 minutes flat, or risk having his fur shaved off, in a frenzy of monkey excitement.

Anyways… It turns out that the note was written in some kind of code that, appropriately enough, had to be decoded. The Head-Monkey summoned the legendary Big-White Monkey, to help her with the decryption algorithm. They used the classic decryption strategy of "Put yourself in the encoder's shoes". Working with the knowledge that Bo Vine is a clever cow and a simple encryption would be beneath him, they concluded that to decrypt the message, they have to determine whether the parentheses are correctly nested. As an example, in the sequence { a [ ] ( m, ) ] bb }, the parentheses are NOT properly nested. Knowing this information, the Big-White Monkey can calculate the exact day that the cows will attack, using algorithms known only to the MIT species.

Input Specification

Output Specification
