Program Plan Intro

Stack:

Stack is a container in which elements inserted and removed in LIFO (Last In First Out) manner.

  • “top” is address of top element of stack.
  • Basic stack operations are given below:
    • push(): Insert an object into stack top.
    • pop(): Delete object in stack top.
    • top(): Get object in stack top.

Explanation of Solution

  1. b. By not using additional stack:

Given stacks are “S1” and “S2”. Additional non-array variables are “Num”, “Num2” and “last_element”.

Contents of “S1” can be transfer into “S2” as same order in “S1” as shown below:

  • “Num” is number of elements initially in stack “S1”.
  • Decrement “Num” by one.
  • Till “Num” becomes zero
    • Equate “Num” into “Num2”.
    • Till “Num2” becomes zero
      • Pop each element from “S1” and push it into “S2”...

Transfer elements from stack S1 to stack S2 so that the elements from S2 are in the same order as on S1 using one additional stack using no additional stack but only some additional non-array variables
You may operate on a stack WORK and a temporary stack TEMP (if necessary) to enable its ADT operations of PUSH (S,X), POP (S, X), and EMPTYSTACK (S), where X represents an element/variable to be pushed into or popped out of the stack and S represents a stack. You may also utilise one variable to carry out the procedures if necessary.   I Given n different random integers to be pushed into WORK, how can you determine the maximum element pushed into it while ensuring that the items placed in WORK are in decreasing order, with the maximum element beginning at the bottom of the stack? You may utilise a single variable and the temporary stack TEMP. ii) Given an array A[1: n] of different random numbers, how can you extract the array's sorted list using only stacks?
You are allowed to operate on a stack WORK and a temporary stack TEMP (ifneeded) supporting their ADT operations of PUSH (S,X), POP (S, X) andEMPTYSTACK (S) only, where X represents an element/variable to be pushed in orpopped out of the stack and S represents a stack. You are also permitted to use onevariable if needed to carry out the operations.i) Given n distinct random numbers that are to be pushed into WORK, how canyou find the minimum element that was pushed into it? You are permitted to use alone variable.ii) Given n distinct random numbers that are to be pushed into WORK, how canyou find the maximum element that was pushed into it, all the while ensuring thatthe elements stored in WORK are in their descending order with the maximumelement beginning at the bottom of stack? You are permitted to use a lone variableand a temporary stack TEMP.iii) Given an array A[1: n] of distinct random numbers how can you obtain thesorted list in the array, making use of stacks alone?
