If it is, the function returns `False` because there is a closing parenthesis without a matching opening parenthesis.\n - Otherwise, it compares the current closing parenthesis with the top element of the stack. If they match, it removes the top element from the stack and continues the loop. If they don't match, the function returns `False`.\n* Once the loop completes, it checks if the stack is empty. If the stack is empty, the sequence of parentheses is valid. Otherwise, there are unmatched opening parentheses, and the function returns `False`.\n\n**Example:**\n\n```python\n>>> is_valid('()')\nTrue\n>>> is_valid('(()())')\nTrue\n>>> is_valid('(()())()')\nTrue\n>>> is_valid('()())')\nFalse\n>>> is_valid('()(){}')\nFalse\n```\n\n**Time Complexity:** O(n), where n is the length of the string.\n\n**Space Complexity:** O(n), because the function creates a new list `stack` to store the encountered parentheses."

It involves:\n\n1. Exploring a solution space by making choices.\n2. Checking if the current solution is valid.\n3. If valid, proceed. If not, backtrack and try a different choice.\n4. Continue exploring until a solution is found or all possibilities have been exhausted.\n\n\n**Rat in a Maze Problem:**\n\nThe Rat in a Maze problem involves finding a path from the starting point to the exit in a maze without obstacles.\n\n**Python Implementation:**\n\n```python\ndef rat_maze(maze, start, end):\n if start == end:\n return True\n\n for neighbor in get_neighbors(start):\n if is_valid(maze, neighbor):\n if rat_maze(maze, neighbor, end):\n return True\n\n return False\n\n# Other functions:\n- get_neighbors: Calculates neighboring cells\n- is_valid: Checks if a cell is valid (not an obstacle)\n```\n\n**Explanation:**\n\n1. The function takes three arguments: the maze, the start and end points.\n2. It starts by checking if the start point is the end point. If yes, it returns True.\n3. It iterates over neighboring cells of the current position.\n4. If the neighbor is valid (not an obstacle), it recursively calls itself with the neighbor as the new start point.\n5.

If no valid neighbors are found, the function returns False.\n\n**Key Aspects:**\n\n- The solution involves exploring multiple paths until a valid path is found.\n- The algorithm backtracks when it encounters an obstacle or reaches a dead end.\n- The recursion depth is limited by the size of the maze.\n\n**Time Complexity:**\n\n- Worst case: O(2^n), where n is the size of the maze.\n- Best case: O(n), when the solution is found quickly.\n\n**Space Complexity:**\n\n- O(n), due to the recursive call stack."

Then, it searches for the prefix \"app\" and prints the results.\n\n**Time Complexity:**\n\n* Insert: O(m), where m is the length of the word\n* Search: O(m), where m is the length of the prefix\n\n**Space Complexity:** O(m), due to the storage of the Trie itself.\n\n**Features:**\n\n* Case-insensitive search\n* Efficient prefix search\n* Compact data structure\n\n**Applications:**\n\n* Autocompletion in search engines\n* Code completion in IDEs\n* Spell checkers\n* Predictive text suggestions"
