Evaluate.java


Below is the syntax highlighted version of Evaluate.java from §1.3 Stacks and Queues.


/******************************************************************************
 *  Compilation:  javac Evaluate.java
 *  Execution:    java Evaluate
 *  Dependencies: Stack.java
 *
 *  Evaluates (fully parenthesized) arithmetic expressions using
 *  Dijkstra's two-stack algorithm.
 *
 *  % java Evaluate
 *  ( 1 + ( ( 2 + 3 ) * ( 4 * 5 ) ) )
 *  101.0
 *
 *  % java Evaulate
 *  ( ( 1 + sqrt ( 5 ) ) / 2.0 )
 *  1.618033988749895
 *
 *
 *  Note: the operators, operands, and parentheses must be
 *  separated by whitespace. Also, each operation must
 *  be enclosed in parentheses. For example, you must write
 *  ( 1 + ( 2 + 3 ) ) instead of ( 1 + 2 + 3 ).
 *  See EvaluateDeluxe.java for a fancier version.
 *
 *
 *  Remarkably, Dijkstra's algorithm computes the same
 *  answer if we put each operator *after* its two operands
 *  instead of *between* them.
 *
 *  % java Evaluate
 *  ( 1 ( ( 2 3 + ) ( 4 5 * ) * ) + )
 *  101.0
 *
 *  Moreover, in such expressions, all parentheses are redundant!
 *  Removing them yields an expression known as a postfix expression.
 *  1 2 3 + 4 5 * * +
