stack of integer elements is implemented as an array. The index of the top element is kept in position 0 in the array, and the stack elements are stored in stack[1], …, stack[stack[0]]. 1. How does this implementation fare when assessed against the idea of an array as a homogeneous collection of data elements? 2. How would this implementation change the stack specification?

The most common implementation technique for regex is backtracking, a common algorithm design technique. Assuming that the implementation is simulating an NFA, and that a stack is used to store the backtracking data, give an example data structure for an entry in that stack. I.e. what fields are in this data structure, and why are they needed? An example sketch may be useful.
It is possible for one linear structure to be more general than another. (a) Can a Queue be implemented using a Stack? What is the level of complexity of each Queue operation? (b) Can a Stack be implemented using a Queue? What are the various Stack techniques' complexities?
Consider an empty stack STK of size 5 (array-based implementation). What will be the output after applying the following stack operations? Draw a diagram in support of your answer. How many elements are there in the stack at the end of the processing?

The PostfixEvaluator class uses the java.util.Stack class to create thestack attribute. The java.util.Stack class is one of two stack implementationsprovided by the Java Collections API. We revisit the other implementation, theDeque interface, in Chapter 13.The evaluate method performs the evaluation algorithm described earlier, supported by the isOperator and evalSingleOp methods. Note that in the evaluatemethod, only operands are pushed onto the stack. Operators are used as they areencountered and are never put on the stack. This is consistent with the evaluation algorithm we discussed. An operand is put on the stack as an Integer object, insteadof as an int primitive value, because the stack collection is designed to store objects.When an operator is encountered, the two most recent operands are poppedoff the stack. As mentioned above, the first operand popped is actually the secondoperand in the expression and that the second operand popped is the first operandin the expression.…
Consider a fixed-size circular array-based implementation of the LRU quasi-stack. Explain step-by-step the algorithm to keep the last referenced page at the top of the stack. Note that the page being referenced may, but does not need to, be already in the stack. Your algorithm must handle both cases. What is the complexity of updating the stack on each new page reference? That is, how many operations are required to add a new page number at the top, or to move an already existing page number from some location in the stack to the top?

Answer the following in your own words: Your friend says they implemented a stack as a linked list with reference pointers to both a head and the tail node (i.e. they implemented a stack as a double ended linked list). They said this significantly improved the performance for all functions (push, pop, search, and update). Are they correct? Why or why not? Another friend implemented a queue as a linked list with only a head pointer (no tail node). She said this made performance of all functions (insert, remove, search, and update) categorically equal to a queue as a linked list with a head and a tail node. Is she correct? Why or why not?
Due to the benefits that circular arrays provide to queues, the issue arises as to whether or not a circularly linked list would reap the same benefits from the same considerations in C++ data structures. Where is the value in that?
