Lab05 DS

The document provides instructions for a lab assignment to implement a stack data structure using both static and dynamic approaches, including designing the stack ADT and providing functions like push, pop, retrieve top, and is empty. It describes stacks and their applications, and includes test plans to test the stack implementations. Students are asked thinking questions about stacks and different implementation approaches.

Lab #05: Implementation of Stacks
Lab Objective:
To implement Stack ADT using lists.

Lab Description:
A stack is a restricted linear list. All additions and deletions are made at one end, the top. Stacks
are known as last in, first out (LIFO) data structures. Stacks can be implemented using:

i. Dynamic Approach (using lists)


ii. Static Approach (using arrays)

Figure 5.1 Stack Representation

Application of Stacks:

i. Backtracking. (Function calls, Undo Redo operations)


ii. Infix to postfix conversions

LAB TASKS

1. Design stack ADT using static approach and provide all the following functions.
i. Push (insert at start)
ii. Pop (delete from start)
iii. Retrieve Top (return top most element without deleting it)
iv. Is Empty (to check is stack is empty)
v. Destructor
vi. Default constructor

TEST PLAN:
Execute your test plan. If you discover mistakes in your implementation of the List ADT, correct
them and execute your test plan again.

Sr. Operations Expected Results Results/Status

1. Create an empty Top=NULL


myStack(size=5)
2. Insert numbers 1-5 in stack

3. Retrieve top from myStack 5

4. Pop an element from stack 5

5. Insert 6 in myStack

6. Retrieve top from myStack 6

8. Pop element from myStack

9. Pop element from myStack

10. Pop element from myStack

11. Pop element from myStack

12. Pop element from myStack

13. Retrieve top from myStack Stack empty

2. Design stack ADT using dynamic approach provide all the following functions.
i. Push (insert at start)
ii. Pop(delete from start)
iii. Retrieve Top (return top most element without deleting it
iv. IsEmpty (to check is stack is empty)
v. Copy Constructor (for deep copying stack)
vi. Destructor (De allocating stack memory)
vii. Default constructor

TEST PLAN:
Execute your test plan. If you discover mistakes in your implementation of the List ADT, correct
them and execute your test plan again.
Sr. Operations Expected Results Results/Status

1. Create an empty stack Top=NULL


myStack

2. Insert numbers 1-5 in stack

3. Retrieve top from myStack 5

4. Pop an element from stack 5

5. Insert 6 in myStack

6. Retrieve top from myStack 6

8. Pop element from myStack

9. Pop element from myStack

10. Pop element from myStack

11. Pop element from myStack

12. Pop element from myStack

13. Retrieve top from myStack Stack empty

3. Design stack ADT using Linked list provide all the following functions.
i. Push (insert at start)
ii. Pop(delete from start)
iii. Retrieve Top (return top most element without deleting it
iv. IsEmpty (to check is stack is empty)
v. Copy
Constructor (for deep copying stack)
vi. Destructor (De allocating stack memory)
vii. Default constructor
THINK:

1. What are the advantages of doubly linked list over singly linked list?
2. What are some applications of stacks?
3. In what scenario you’ll prefer using static stack implementation?
4. What is difference between implementation of static and dynamic stack in term of memory?
