C++: implement a stack based prefix expression evaluator using code below. Complete the evaluatePrefix function so that it
will accept a string that is an expression in prefix notation and evaluates it to return the result.
#include
#include
#include
using namespace std;
double evaluatePrefix (string expr) {
stack < double >Stack;
for (int j = expr.size () - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
// if jth character is the delimiter ( which is
// space in this case) then skip it
if (expr[j] == ' ')
continue;
// Push operand to Stack
// To convert expr[j] to digit subtract
// '0' from expr[j].
if (isdigit (expr[j])) {
// there may be more than
// one digit in a number
double num = 0, i = j;
while (j < expr.size () && isdigit (expr[j]))
j--;
j++;
// from [j, i] expr contains a number
for (int k = j; k
