Stack operations using linked list


Write a C Program to perform Stack operations using linked list. Here’s simple Program to perform Stack operations using linked list in C Programming Language.


What is Stack ?


Stack is an abstract data type with a bounded(predefined) capacity. It is a simple data structure that allows adding and removing elements in a particular order. Every time an element is added, it goes on the top of the stack, the only element that can be removed is the element that was at the top of the stack, just like a pile of objects.


Basic Operations : :


  • push() − Pushing (storing) an element on the stack.
  • pop() − Removing (accessing) an element from the stack.
  • peek() − get the top data element of the stack, without removing it.
  • isFull() − check if stack is full.
  • isEmpty() − check if stack is empty.

Below is the source code for C Program to perform Stack operations using linked list which is successfully compiled and run on Windows System to produce desired output as shown below :
