Given a string representing a code snippet, implement a tag validator to parse the code and return whether it is valid.
A code snippet is valid if all the following rules hold:
- The code must be wrapped in a valid closed tag. Otherwise, the code is invalid.
- A closed tag (not necessarily valid) has exactly the following format :
<TAG_NAME>TAG_CONTENT</TAG_NAME>. Among them,is the start tag, and is the end tag. TheTAG_NAMEin start and end tags should be the same. A closed tag is valid if and only if theTAG_NAMEandTAG_CONTENTare valid.- A valid
TAG_NAMEonly contain upper-case letters, and has length in range [1,9]. Otherwise, the TAG_NAME is invalid.- A valid
TAG_CONTENTmay contain other valid closed tags, cdata and any characters (see note1) EXCEPT unmatched <, unmatched start and end tag, and unmatched or closed tags with invalidTAG_NAME. Otherwise, theTAG_CONTENTis invalid.- A start tag is unmatched if no end tag exists with the same
TAG_NAME, and vice versa. However, you also need to consider the issue of unbalanced when tags are nested.- A < is unmatched if you cannot find a subsequent >. And when you find a < or </, all the subsequent characters until the next > should be parsed as TAG_NAME (not necessarily valid).
- The cdata has the following format :
<![CDATA[CDATA_CONTENT]]>. The range of CDATA_CONTENT is defined as the characters between <![CDATA[ and the first subsequent ]]>.CDATA_CONTENTmay contain any characters. The function of cdata is to forbid the validator to parseCDATA_CONTENT, so even it has some characters that can be parsed as tag (no matter valid or invalid), you should treat it as regular characters.
