@ohos.util.Stack (Linear Container Stack)

Stack is implemented based on the array data structure. It follows the principle Last Out First In (LOFI) and supports data insertion and removal at one end.

Unlike Queue, which is implemented based on the queue data structure and supports insertion at one end and removal at the other end, Stack supports insertion and removal at the same end.

Recommended use case: Use Stack in LOFI scenarios.

This topic uses the following to identify the use of generics:

• T: Type

NOTE

The initial APIs of this module are supported since API version 8. Newly added APIs will be marked with a superscript to indicate their earliest API version.

// Method 1:
for (let item of stack) { 
  console.log("value:" + item); 
}

// Method 2:
let iter = stack[Symbol.iterator]();
let temp = iter.next().value;
while(temp != undefined) {
  console.log("value:" + temp);
  temp = iter.next().value;
}
