【LeetCode】225. Implement Stack using Queues

题目:

Implement the following operations of a stack using queues.

  • push(x) -- Push element x onto stack.
  • pop() -- Removes the element on top of the stack.
  • top() -- Get the top element.
  • empty() -- Return whether the stack is empty.

Notes:

  • You must use only standard operations of a queue -- which means only push to backpeek/pop from frontsize, and is empty operations are valid.
  • Depending on your language, queue may not be supported natively. You may simulate a queue by using a list or deque (double-ended queue), as long as you use only standard operations of a queue.
  • You may assume that all operations are valid (for example, no pop or top operations will be called on an empty stack).

提示:

此题要求用“队列”实现“栈”,我们可以通过将队列进行循环来实现栈的特性。比如在push()的时候,被push元素之前的所有元素都重新pop出来再push到队尾,经过这一操作之后,队列中的元素顺序就能和栈的“先进后出”的顺序一致了。

通过这种方法,push是O(n)的,而pop,top,empty都是O(1)的。

代码:

class Stack {
    queue<int> q;
public:
    // Push element x onto stack.
    void push(int x) {
        q.push(x);
        for (int i = 0; i < q.size() - 1; ++i) {
            q.push(q.front());
            q.pop();
        }
    }

    // Removes the element on top of the stack.
    void pop() {
        q.pop();
    }

    // Get the top element.
    int top() {
        return q.front();
    }

    // Return whether the stack is empty.
    bool empty() {
        return q.empty();
    }
};
