Given a string s containing just the characters '(', ')', '{', '}', '[' and ']', determine if the input string is valid.

\n\n

An input string is valid if:

\n\n
    \n\t
  1. Open brackets must be closed by the same type of brackets.
  2. \n\t
  3. Open brackets must be closed in the correct order.
  4. \n\t
  5. Every close bracket has a corresponding open bracket of the same type.
  6. \n
\n\n

Example 1:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "()"\nOutput: true\n
\n\n

Example 2:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "()[]{}"\nOutput: true\n
\n\n

Example 3:

\n\n
\nInput: s = "(]"\nOutput: false\n
