150. Evaluate Reverse Polish Notation

Evaluate the value of an arithmetic expression in Reverse Polish Notationarrow-up-right.

Valid operators are +, -, *, /. Each operand may be an integer or another expression.

Note:

  • Division between two integers should truncate toward zero.

  • The given RPN expression is always valid. That means the expression would always evaluate to a result and there won't be any divide by zero operation.

Example 1:

Input: ["2", "1", "+", "3", "*"]
Output: 9
Explanation: ((2 + 1) * 3) = 9

Example 2:

Input: ["4", "13", "5", "/", "+"]
Output: 6
Explanation: (4 + (13 / 5)) = 6

Example 3:

Input: ["10", "6", "9", "3", "+", "-11", "*", "/", "*", "17", "+", "5", "+"]
Output: 22
Explanation: 
  ((10 * (6 / ((9 + 3) * -11))) + 17) + 5
= ((10 * (6 / (12 * -11))) + 17) + 5
= ((10 * (6 / -132)) + 17) + 5
= ((10 * 0) + 17) + 5
= (0 + 17) + 5
= 17 + 5
= 22

解题要点:

遍历list,把所有不是运算符的加进stack(只含数字)。当遇到运算符时,pop两个element出来,并进行运算,此时的顺序为stack底部的在前,顶部在运算符后。算好后把新数字再加进stack里,以此类推,直到最后返回stack剩下的那个数,为最终结果。
