/**
 * 241 - Different Ways to Add Parentheses\.
 *
 * Medium
 *
 * Given a string `expression` of numbers and operators, return _all possible results from computing all the different possible ways to group numbers and operators_. You may return the answer in **any order**.
 *
 * **Example 1:**
 *
 * **Input:** expression = "2-1-1"
 *
 * **Output:** [0,2]
 *
 * **Explanation:** ((2-1)-1) = 0 (2-(1-1)) = 2 
 *
 * **Example 2:**
 *
 * **Input:** expression = "2\*3-4\*5"
 *
 * **Output:** [-34,-14,-10,-10,10]
 *
 * **Explanation:**
 *
 *     (2*(3-(4*5))) = -34
 *     ((2*3)-(4*5)) = -14
 *     ((2*(3-4))*5) = -10
 *     (2*((3-4)*5)) = -10
 *     (((2*3)-4)*5) = 10 
 *
 * **Constraints:**
 *
 * *   `1 <= expression.length <= 20`
 * *   `expression` consists of digits and the operator `'+'`, `'-'`, and `'*'`.
 * *   All the integer values in the input expression are in the range `[0, 99]`.
