112. Valid Palindrome

EasyTwo Pointers

A phrase is a palindrome if, after converting all uppercase letters into lowercase letters and removing all non-alphanumeric characters, it reads the same forward and backward. Alphanumeric characters include letters and numbers. Given a string s, return true if it is a palindrome, or false otherwise.

Examples

Input: A man, a plan, a canal: Panama

Output: true

Explanation: After lowercasing and removing non-alphanumerics it reads 'amanaplanacanalpanama', which is the same forwards and backwards.

Constraints
