Different Ways to Add Parentheses

Given a string of numbers and operators, return all possible results from computing all the different possible ways to group numbers and operators. The valid operators are +- and *.


Example 1

Input: "2-1-1".

((2-1)-1) = 0
(2-(1-1)) = 2

Output: [0, 2]


code:

class Solution {
public:
    vector diffWaysToCompute(string input) {
        vector result;
        int size = input.size();
        for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
            char cur = input[i];
            if (cur == '+' || cur == '-' || cur == '*') {
                // Split input string into two parts and solve them recursively
                vector result1 = diffWaysToCompute(input.substr(0, i));
                vector result2 = diffWaysToCompute(input.substr(i+1));
                for (auto n1 : result1) {
                    for (auto n2 : result2) {
                        if (cur == '+')
                            result.push_back(n1 + n2);
                        else if (cur == '-')
                            result.push_back(n1 - n2);
                        else
                            result.push_back(n1 * n2);    
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        // if the input string contains only number
        if (result.empty())
            result.push_back(atoi(input.c_str()));
        return result;
    }
};
