    Study Notes

    Data Structures

    • A mutable data structure is an array or list.

    Stack Data Structure

    • The main characteristic of a stack data structure is that it follows the Last In, First Out (LIFO) principle.
    • A stack is called a stack because it resembles a physical stack, where elements are added and removed from the top.

    Stack Operations

    • The push operation appends an element at the top of a stack.

    Course Overview

    • We have exclusively worked with mutable data structures, such as arrays and lists, thus far in the course.
