Write a C++ program hw6.cpp that does the following:

The program first creates an STL stack that stores char data.

Then ask user to enter a series of parentheses and/or braces, then report whether or not theyre properly nested:

Example run:

Enter parentheses and/or braces: ((){}{()})

Parentheses/braces are nested properly

Continue? (y/n)

Enter parentheses and/or braces: {{{()}}

Parentheses/braces are NOT nested properly

Continue? (y/n)

Enter parentheses and/or braces: {({{()(){}}))}

Parentheses/braces are NOT nested properly

Continue? (y/n)

After each round, ask user if he/she wants to continue. If yes, go back to the previous step and take another string of parentheses/braces. If no, terminate program.

Hint: As the program reads characters, have it push each left parenthesis or left brace into the STL stack. When it reads a right parenthesis or brace, have it pop the stack and check if the popped item is a matching parenthesis or brace (If not, the parentheses/braces arent nested properly). When there is no more character to read, check if the stack is empty; if so, the parentheses/braces are matched.

If the user enters any character other than parenthesis or brace, simply ignore it. Therefore, entering a wrong character shouldnt lead to program malfunction.

Note: If you implement it without using STL stack, there will be a huge loss of points (even if the program works).
