ABSTRACT DATA TYPE

PYTHON
• An abstract data type (or ADT) defines some kind of
data and the operations that can be performed on it. It
is a pure interface, with no mention of an
implementation—that’s what makes it abstract.

Some famous abstract data types
Stacks and Queues
the Stack and the Queue. Both of these ADTs store a collection of
items, and support operations to add an item and remove an item.
The Stack ADT

• The Stack ADT is very simple. A stack contains zero or


more items.
• When you add an item, it goes “on the top” of the stack
(we call this “pushing” onto the stack)
• and when you remove an item, it is removed from the
top also (we call this “popping” from the stack).
• The net effect is that the first item added to the stack is
the last item removed.
• We call this Last-In-First-Out (or LIFO) behaviour.
