Question

Transcribed Image Text:10. Write a program which will rearrange and sort a stack of integer values,
using two other stacks. The following algorithm describes how to do this:
1. Start with a stack of numbers named primary and two empty stacks
named 1ower and higher.
2. Pop the first number from your primary stack and put it into the 1ower
stack
3. Pop the next number from your primary stack, if it is smaller than the
number you previously put into the lower stack, then add it to the
lower stack, otherwise put it in the higher stack.
4. Repeat step 3 until the primary stack is empty.
5. Pop each of the elements from the lower stack and add them back into
the primary stack.
6. Pop each element of the higher stack. If the value is greater than the
value at the head of the primary stack, then add it onto the primary
stack, otherwise add the number into the lower stack.
7. Repeat the process from steps 3 through to step 6 until both the higher
and lower stacks contain no elements. At this point, the primary stack
will be sorted.

Read another symbol from input stringarrow_forwardGiven 2 integers as 2 lists of their digits, you have to compute their sum and output it as a list of its digits. If the integer is 1234 its corresponding list would be [1, 2, 3, 4]. You can assume the integers are non-negative. Input: [1, 2, 3, 4] [4, 3, 2, 1] output: [5, 5, 5, 5] Explanation: 1234 + 4321 = 5555 input: [9, 9, 9, 9] [1, 1, 1] output: [1, 0, 1, 1, 0] Explanation: 9999 + 111 = 10110arrow_forward
