Pattern Syntax Checker

 Using Regex, we can easily match or search for patterns in a text. Before searching for a pattern, we have to specify one using some well-defined syntax.

In this problem, you are given a pattern. You have to check whether the syntax of the given pattern is valid.

Note: In this problem, a regex is only valid if you can compile it using the Pattern.compile method.

Input Format

The first line of input contains an integer , denoting the number of test cases. The next  lines contain a string of any printable characters representing the pattern of a regex.

Output Format

For each test case, print Valid if the syntax of the given pattern is correct. Otherwise, print Invalid. Do not print the quotes.

Sample Input

3
([A-Z])(.+)
[AZ[a-z](a-z)
batcatpat(nat

Sample Output

Valid
Invalid
Invalid
SOLUTION:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.util.regex.*;

public class Solution
{
    public static void main(String[] args){
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        int testCases = Integer.parseInt(in.nextLine());
        while(testCases>0){
            String pattern = in.nextLine();
            try{
                Pattern p= Pattern.compile(pattern);
                System.out.println("Valid");
            }catch(Throwable t)
            {
                System.out.println("Invalid");
            }
            testCases--;
              
        }
        in.close();
    }
}
