To implement regular expression splitting on commas but excluding those that are inside any type of parentheses, while considering recursion, we can use a combination of regex and stack data structure.
We can start by iterating through each character in the string and checking if it is a comma. If it is a comma and there are no open parentheses, then we split the string at that comma. If there are open parentheses, we add the index of the comma to a stack.
If we encounter an opening parenthesis, we add it to the stack. If we encounter a closing parenthesis, we pop the top of the stack and remove the corresponding opening parenthesis. We can use this stack to keep track of the opening and closing parentheses in the string.
If we encounter a comma while there are open parentheses in the stack, we ignore the comma, as it is inside a parenthesis. If we encounter an opening parenthesis, we add it to the stack. If we encounter a closing parenthesis, we pop the top of the stack and remove the corresponding opening parenthesis.
We can repeat this process recursively for each substring inside the parentheses, using the same stack to keep track of the opening and closing parentheses in that substring.
To sum up, the algorithm will look like this:
