Well due to a connectivity issue I only got to do the first question.
I did it in c++ and it basically looked like this (I've been working
with it a little to clean it up since then)

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
	string str;
	char charopen = '(';
	char charclose = ')';

	while(getline(cin,str))
	{
	
		if(str.empty())
		{
			return 0;
		}

		int counter;
		int c_open = 0;
		int c_close = 0;
		int depth = 0;
		counter = str.length();
	
		for(int x = 0; x <= counter; x++)
		{

			if(str[x] == charopen)
			{
				c_open++;
				depth++;
				if(str[x+1] == charclose)
				{
					depth--;
				}
			}

			if(str[x] == charclose)
			{
				c_close++;
			}
		}
	
		if(c_close != c_open)
		{
			cout << 0 << endl;
		}
		else
		{
			cout << depth+1 << endl;
		}
	}
}
