10 Questions
Stack operations may involve initializing the stack, using it and then de-initializing it. Apart from these basic stuffs, a stack is used for the following two primary operations − ______ - Pushing (storing) an element on the stack. pop() − Removing (accessing) an element from the stack.
push()
Stack is a linear data structure which follows a particular order in which the operations are performed. The order may be LIFO(Last In First Out) or FILO(First In Last Out). Stack Terminology PUSH - insertion operation POP - ______ operation
removal
To use a stack efficiently, we need to check the status of stack as well. For the same purpose, the following functionality is added to stacks − ______ − get the top data element of the stack, without removing it. IsFull() − check if stack is full. IsEmpty() − check if stack is empty.
peek()
At all times, we maintain a pointer to the last PUSHed data on the stack. As this pointer always represents the top ______ on the stack.

Study Notes
Stack Operations
- Stack operations involve initializing, using, and de-initializing the stack.
- The two primary operations of a stack are:
- Pushing (storing) an element on the stack using the push() operation.
- Removing (accessing) an element from the stack using the pop() operation.
Stack Terminology
- PUSH refers to the insertion operation.
- POP refers to the removal operation.
Stack Functionality
- peek() - gets the top data element of the stack without removing it.
- IsFull() - checks if the stack is full.
- IsEmpty() - checks if the stack is empty.
Stack Characteristics
- A stack is a linear data structure.
- It follows a particular order of operations, which can be LIFO (Last In First Out) or FILO (First In Last Out).
- A pointer is maintained to the last PUSHed data on the stack, representing the top element on the stack.
