/**
*
* The nested brackets problem is a problem that determines if a sequence of
* brackets are properly nested. A sequence of brackets s is considered properly
* nested if any of the following conditions are true: - s is empty - s has the
* form (U) or [U] or {U} where U is a properly nested string - s has the form
* VW where V and W are properly nested strings For example, the string
* "()()[()]" is properly nested but "[(()]" is not. The function called
* is_balanced takes as input a string S which is a sequence of brackets and
* returns true if S is nested and false otherwise.
