One clarification on my earlier response to the student.  ...prompted by his

If you come up with the straightforward correct algorithm that I have given
you lots of hints about, then yes, you will never get failure due to a badly
formed string.

HOWEVER, if you come up with a bad algorithm, then you could end up pushing
and popping random amounts and end up thinking you had a bad expression.

Good luck getting this done in time.
