Stacks

A stack is a special data structure where you only add, access, and remove elements from the top. A stack is also known as a last-in first-out (LIFO) structure. The Last thing to be added In to a stack is the First thing that comes Out of it.

Examples of Stack Push and pop In computer science, a stack is an abstract data type that serves as a collection of elements, with two principal operations:

  • push, which adds an element to the collection, and
  • pop, which removes the most recently added element that was not yet removed.

The order in which elements come off a stack gives rise to its alternative name, LIFO (last in, first out). Additionally, a peek operation may give access to the top without modifying the stack. The ADT operations on stack are:

  1. push-inserts an element at top of stack.
  2. pop-deletes one element from top of stack.
  3. Top -gives top element of stack.
  4. IsEmpty-whether stack is empty or not.
