Stacks Bracket Balancing

EasyPython

Problem

Solve a coding problem on stacks: balancing brackets.

Given a string containing (), [], and {}, return True if every opening bracket is closed by the correct bracket in the correct order; otherwise return False.

Implement def is_balanced_brackets(s):, where s is a string and the result is a Boolean. An empty string is balanced.

Constraints

  • 0 <= len(s) <= 1000
  • s contains only the characters '(', ')', '[', ']', '{', and '}'
  • Each bracket must be matched by the same bracket type
  • Matching must respect opening and closing order
