@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.

stack.push(2);
let result = stack.locate(2);
forEach
forEach(callbackFn: (value: T, index?: number, stack?: Stack<T>) => void, thisArg?: Object): void
Uses a callback to traverse the elements in this container and obtain their position indexes.
System capability: SystemCapability.Utils.Lang
Parameters
Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
---|---|---|---|
callbackFn | function | Yes | Callback invoked to traverse the elements in the container. |
thisArg | Object | No | Value of this to use when callbackFn is invoked. The default value is this instance. |
callbackFn
Name | Type | Mandatory | Description |
---|---|---|---|
value | T | Yes | Value of the element that is currently traversed. |
index | number | No | Position index of the element that is currently traversed. The default value is 0. |
stack | Stack<T> | No | Instance that calls the forEach API. The default value is this instance. |
Error codes
For details about the error codes, see Utils Error Codes.
ID | Error Message |
---|---|
10200011 | The forEach method cannot be bound. |
Example
let stack : Stack<number> = new Stack();
stack.push(2);
stack.push(4);
stack.push(5);
stack.push(4);
stack.forEach((value : number, index ?: number) :void => {
console.log("value:" + value, "index:" + index);
});
isEmpty
isEmpty(): boolean
Checks whether this container is empty (contains no elements).
System capability: SystemCapability.Utils.Lang
Return value
Type | Description |
---|---|
boolean | Returns true if the container is empty; returns false otherwise. |
Error codes
For details about the error codes, see Utils Error Codes.
ID | Error Message |

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