  2. Stack (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    For example, if n = 3, items 1, 2, and 3 on the stack are moved to positions 2, 3, and 1 on the stack, respectively. Many variants of this operation are possible, with the most common being called left rotate and right rotate. Stacks are often visualized growing from the bottom up (like real-world stacks).

  3. Peek (data type operation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peek_(data_type_operation)

    Priority queue (such as a heap) Double-ended queue (deque) Double-ended priority queue (DEPQ) Single-ended types, such as stack, generally only admit a single peek, at the end that is modified. Double-ended types, such as deques, admit two peeks, one at each end. Names for peek vary. "Peek" or "top" are common for stacks, while for queues ...

  4. Queue (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(abstract_data_type)

    Queue overflow results from trying to add an element onto a full queue and queue underflow happens when trying to remove an element from an empty queue. A bounded queue is a queue limited to a fixed number of items. [1] There are several efficient implementations of FIFO queues.

  5. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    While priority queues are often implemented using heaps, they are conceptually distinct from heaps. A priority queue is an abstract data type like a list or a map; just as a list can be implemented with a linked list or with an array, a priority queue can be implemented with a heap or another method such as an ordered array.

  6. Double-ended queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue

    A double-ended queue can be used to store the browsing history: new websites are added to the end of the queue, while the oldest entries will be deleted when the history is too large. When a user asks to clear the browsing history for the past hour, the most recently added entries are removed.

  7. Heap (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap_(data_structure)

    Priority queue: A priority queue is an abstract concept like "a list" or "a map"; just as a list can be implemented with a linked list or an array, a priority queue can be implemented with a heap or a variety of other methods. K-way merge: A heap data structure is useful to merge many already-sorted input streams into a single sorted output ...

  8. Stack-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-oriented_programming

    Take plate 2 and put it on the stack, then take plate 3 and put it on the stack. Next, take the mul plate. This is an instruction to perform. Then, take the top two plates off the stack, multiply their labels (2 and 3), and write the result (6) on a new plate. Discard the two old plates (2 and 3) and the plate mul, and put

  9. Stack-sortable permutation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-sortable_permutation

    For instance, the sequence 3,2,1 is correctly sorted: the three elements are all pushed onto the stack, and then popped in the order 1,2,3. However, the sequence 2,3,1 is not correctly sorted: the algorithm first pushes 2, and pops it when it sees the larger input value 3, causing 2 to be output before 1 rather than after it.
