Switch branches/tags

Name already in use

A tag already exists with the provided branch name. Many Git commands accept both tag and branch names, so creating this branch may cause unexpected behavior. Are you sure you want to create this branch?

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]
