- All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterable<Item>
public class LinkedStack<Item> extends Object implements Iterable<Item>
TheLinkedStack
class represents a last-in-first-out (LIFO) stack of generic items. It supports the usual push and pop operations, along with methods for peeking at the top item, testing if the stack is empty, and iterating through the items in LIFO order.This implementation uses a singly linked list with a non-static nested class for linked-list nodes. See
Stack
for a version that uses a static nested class. The push, pop, peek, size, and is-empty operations all take constant time in the worst case.For additional documentation, see Section 1.3 of Algorithms, 4th Edition by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne.
