Given a string containing only paranthesis ')' or '(', find the minimum number of swaps (need not be adjacent characters) to balance the string. If it's not possible to balance, return -1.

For eg: ))((
Ans - 1, Swap first and last bracket -> ()()

eg: (()())
Ans - 0

Wasn't able to come up with even a brute force solution. Could someone share the solution with the time complexity?
