Given a string, determine if it is a palindrome, considering only alphanumeric characters and ignoring cases.
Note: For the purpose of this problem, we define empty string as valid palindrome.
Example 1:
Input: "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama"
Output: true
Example 2:
Input: "race a car"
Output: false
My code:
class Solution(object):
def isPalindrome(self, s):
"""
:type s: str
:rtype: bool
"""
tmp_str=""
for c in s:
if ord(c)>=65 and ord(c)<=90:
tmp_str+=c.lower()
if ord(c)>=97 and ord(c)<=122:
tmp_str+=c
if ord(c)>=48 and ord(c)<=57:
tmp_str+=c
return tmp_str==tmp_str[::-1]
