implement-stack-using-queues


Implement a last-in-first-out (LIFO) stack using only two queues. The implemented stack should support all the functions of a normal stack (push, top, pop, and empty).



Implement the MyStack class:




  • void push(int x) Pushes element x to the top of the stack.

  • int pop() Removes the element on the top of the stack and returns it.

  • int top() Returns the element on the top of the stack.

  • boolean empty() Returns true if the stack is empty, false otherwise.



Notes:




  • You must use only standard operations of a queue, which means that only push to back, peek/pop from front, size and is empty operations are valid.

  • Depending on your language, the queue may not be supported natively. You may simulate a queue using a list or deque (double-ended queue) as long as you use only a queue's standard operations.



 


Example 1:



Input
["MyStack", "push", "push", "top", "pop", "empty"]
[[], [1], [2], [], [], []]
Output
[null, null, null, 2, 2, false]

Explanation
MyStack myStack = new MyStack();
myStack.push(1);
myStack.push(2);
myStack.top(); // return 2
myStack.pop(); // return 2
myStack.empty(); // return False


 


Constraints:




  • 1 <= x <= 9

  • At most 100 calls will be made to push, pop, top, and empty.

  • All the calls to pop and top are valid.



 


Follow-up: Can you implement the stack using only one queue?
