APL Quest 2013-4: Keeping Things In Balance

Write a function which returns a 1 if the opening and closing parentheses in a character vector are balanced, or a zero otherwise.

My Quest. Find #song #titles that begin with a #parenthesis. Opening or closing, it's all good.

(I'm) Stranded

#SongTitles

I have had people go frothing at the mouth when I point out that a lot of #punctuation is "#silence #notation."

A #comma is a point of silence, it is shorter than the point of silence of a #period. #Ellipsis (...) is a fade to silence. #Emdash/dash is an abrupt silence. #Parenthesis invokes a point of silence before and after an aside, much the same length as a comma.

People forget that the written word is made to represent the spoken word, that includes silence and change of pitch.

ParenThesis

A quotation from Chamfort, Nicolas:

«
The art of the parenthesis is one of the great secrets of eloquence in society.

[L’art de la parenthèse est un des grands secrets de l’éloquence dans la Société.]

#TodayILearned that #parentheses don't play well with #hashtags. If I write "In this film, the unnamed hero (#ValDugan) defends...", the actor's name doesn't show up as highlighted if the hashtag has a #parenthesis directly in front of it (so I edited the post to add spaces).

At least it _didn't_ display as highlighted on the #Akkoma website when I wrote a long post in my text editor and pasted it into the dialog box. I find that it _does_ show up as highlighted when I now type the same parenthetical in #Husky's dialog box. Whether the #hashtag is functional after a parenthesis, I don't know.

Edit: It shows as highlighted in Husky's dialog box, but not its timeline.

I am ridiculously fond of using parenthesis in more informal writing (e.g. emails). Most sentences end up with at least one parenthetical comment and sometimes they nest... #Parenthesis #AcademicWriting #Email
