Hello,

  Im trying to solve this problem with JAVA, but I have WA on the 1st test case (which is most probably the sample test)...
  For the purpose of testing I replaced those 'corner' symbols with other symbols, and my solution worked fine on the sample test.

  For now Im using:

  char k=p.charAt(j);
  int asci=k;
  switch (asci) {
    case 218:
