in reply to Parens permutations

If   1 ((2 3)) is valid, then what about   1 (((2 3))) ? If that's valid, then you have a countably infinite number of possible permutations. I kinda doubt the problem is phrased to allow that.


Update: D'oh. So that's what p= means.

    Hi dws,
    The number of parens are given. So if p = 2 then
    1 ((2 3)) => valid 
    ((1 2 3)) => valid 
    1 (((2 3))) => invalid
