			if(stk.empty())
				return false;
			if(stk.top() == bracket_map[str[i]] )
				stk.pop();

	}
	
	return (stk.empty() == true);
}

Example 2: Algorithm check balanced parentheses

if (null == str || ((str.length() % 2) != 0)) {
    return false;
} else {
    char[] ch = str.toCharArray();
    for (char c : ch) {
        if (!(c == '{' || c == '[' || c == '(' || c == '}' || c == ']' || c == ')')) {
            return false;
        }
    }
}
