Stacks • A stack is a sequence of items that are accessible at only one end of the sequence.

Pushing/Popping a Stack • Because a pop removes the item last added to the stack, we say that a stack has LIFO (last-in/first-out) ordering.
CLASS stack CLASS stack <stack> <stack> Constructor Operations stack(); Create an empty stack bool empty(); const Check whether the stack is empty. Return true if it is empty and false otherwise. 5 Main Index Contents
CLASS stack <stack> Operations void pop(); Remove the item from the top of the stack. Precondition: The stack is not empty. Postcondition: Either the stack is empty or the stack has a new topmost item from a previous push. void push(const T& item); Insert the argument item at the top of the stack. Postcondition: The stack has a new item at the top. 6 Main Index Contents
CLASS stack <stack> Operations int size() const; Return the number of items on the stack. T& top() const; Return a reference to the value of the item at the top of the stack. Precondition: The stack is not empty. const T& top() const; Constant version of top(). 7 Main Index Contents

Except for the exponential operator ^, the other binary operators are left-associative and have equal input and stack precedence.
18 Main Index Contents Summary Slide 1 §- Stack - Storage Structure with insert (push) and erase (pop) operations occur at one end, called the top of the stack. - The last element in is the first element out of the stack, so a stack is a LIFO structure.
19 Main Index Contents Summary Slide 2 §- Recursion - The system maintains a stack of activation records that specify: 1) the function arguments 2) the local variables/objects 3) the return address - The system pushes an activation record when calling a function and pops it when returning.
20 Main Index Contents Summary Slide 3 §- Postfix/RPN Expression Notation - places the operator after its operands - easy to evaluate using a single stack to hold operands. - The rules: 1) Immediately push an operand onto the stack. 2) For a binary operator, pop the stack twice, perform the operation, and push the result onto the stack. 3) At the end a single value remains on the stack. This is the value of the expression.
21 Main Index Contents Summary Slide 4 §- Infix notation - A binary operator appears between its operands. - More complex than postfix, because it requires the use of operator precedence and parentheses. - In addition, some operators are left-associative, and a few are right-associative.
