京公网安备11010502063487号给定 n 对括号，生成所有合法的括号组合。合法的意思是：每个右括号都能和前面某个未配对的左括号匹配。暴力做法是枚举全部 2^(2n) 个由 ( 和 ) 组成的串，再逐个检查；更好的做法是回溯，在生成的过程中只走合法的分支：左括号还没用满 n 个就可以放，右括号只有在"已放的左括号比右括号多"时才可以放。本文用真实运行的数据展示合法串的个数（卡特兰数）、剪枝带来的实际加速，给出五种语言的实现，并把回溯过程做成分步演示。
完整题目见官方页面（链接在文末）。结果的顺序不作要求，核对时按集合比较。基准解枚举全部 2^(2n) 个串并逐个检查，与回溯是两种独立的写法。一共 8 组用例，n 从 1 到 8：

我让回溯真实地生成了 n 从 1 到 10 的全部结果，并与卡特兰数公式 C(2n, n) / (n + 1) 对照，同时列出全部 2^(2n) 个串的数量，看看合法的占多少：
n | 结果个数 | 卡特兰数 C(2n,n)/(n+1) | 全部 2^(2n) 个串 | 合法占比 1 | 1 | 1 | 4 | 25.0000% 2 | 2 | 2 | 16 | 12.5000% 3 | 5 | 5 | 64 | 7.8125% 4 | 14 | 14 | 256 | 5.4688% 5 | 42 | 42 | 1024 | 4.1016% 6 | 132 | 132 | 4096 | 3.2227% 7 | 429 | 429 | 16384 | 2.6184% 8 | 1430 | 1430 | 65536 | 2.1820% 9 | 4862 | 4862 | 262144 | 1.8547% 10 | 16796 | 16796 | 1048576 | 1.6018%
每一行的结果个数都和卡特兰数公式完全相同（n = 10 时是 16796）。n = 10 时全部 1048576 个串里只有约 1.6% 是合法的，也就是说暴力枚举会检查大量注定无效的串，这是回溯剪枝的价值所在。
"不剪枝"的版本同样用回溯，但每个位置都可以放两种括号，放满 2n 个之后再检查是否合法。它与本文的解法结果完全一致，只是慢得多。下面是真实耗时，每个规模取三次中最快的一次：
n | 剪枝回溯耗时 | 不剪枝（放满再检查）耗时 | 结果一致 6 | 0.15 ms | 1.33 ms | True 8 | 0.77 ms | 26.87 ms | True 10 | 10.07 ms | 349.53 ms | True
n = 10 时，剪枝版本是 7.74ms，不剪枝版本是 325.72ms，约 42 倍。剪枝把搜索限制在合法的前缀上，搜索的规模与结果个数同一量级，而不是 4 的 n 次方。
dfs(open, close) 记录已经放了几个左括号和几个右括号。路径长度达到 2n 时收集结果；否则如果左括号没用满就放左括号并递归，再撤销；如果右括号比左括号少就放右括号并递归，再撤销。Python、Java、Go、JavaScript、C++ 都是真实编译运行的。

共 8 组用例（含边界），以暴力解的结果为基准逐组比对： Python 通过 8/8 Java 通过 8/8 Go 通过 8/8 JavaScript 通过 8/8 C++ 通过 8/8
下面是括号对数 n 为 4、6、8、10 时，全部枚举再检查的暴力解与回溯的耗时：
n（括号对数） | 暴力解 | 本文解法
4 | 0.037 ms | 0.006 ms
6 | 0.643 ms | 0.057 ms
8 | 13.716 ms | 0.670 ms
10 | （未测，太慢） | 9.426 msn 每增加 2，暴力解的耗时增长约 15 到 19 倍（4 的平方是 16），回溯每增加 2 增长约 8 到 16 倍（n = 4 到 6 是 8.6 倍，6 到 8 是 15.9 倍，8 到 10 是 8.4 倍），与结果个数每增加两对增长 9 到 12 倍的量级相当（例如 n = 6 到 8 是 132 到 1430）；中间那一档偏高，我没有细究，小规模下计时的噪声也比较大。n = 10 时暴力解没有再测。
Python 版本另外和暴力解做了随机对拍：
随机对拍 200 组（n 取 1 到 7 的随机值（结果按集合比较，不要求顺序）），solve 与 brute 的结果全部一致。
n 只有 1 到 8 这几种取值，所以固定用例已经覆盖了全部小规模输入；随机对拍主要用来确认没有遗漏。另外四种语言只在上面 8 组固定用例上验证过。
下面的演示用 n = 3，共 5 个结果。每一帧都是把上面的解法在这组输入上真实执行记录下来的，运行器还检查了演示收集到的结果与 solve 一致。注意"右括号已经和左括号一样多，不能再放 )"的帧：这就是剪枝，直接不生成非法前缀。
