Constructor Detail

BooleanLinkedStack

public BooleanLinkedStack()

Initialize an empty stack.

Parameters:

- - none

Postcondition:

This stack is empty.

Method Detail

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Generate a copy of this stack.

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

- - none

Returns:

The return value is a copy of this stack. Subsequent changes to the copy will not affect the original, nor vice versa. Note that the return value must be type cast to a BooleanLinkedStack before it can be used.

Throws:

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError - Indicates insufficient memory for creating the clone.

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()

Determine whether this stack is empty.

Parameters:

- - none

Returns:

true if this stack is empty; false otherwise.

peek

public boolean peek()

Get the top item of this stack, without removing the item.

Parameters:

- - none

Precondition:

This stack is not empty.

Returns:

the top item of the stack

Throws:

java.util.EmptyStackException - Indicates that this stack is empty.

pop

public boolean pop()

Get the top item, removing it from this stack.

Parameters:

- - none

Precondition:

This stack is not empty.

Postcondition:

The return value is the top item of this stack, and the item has been removed.

Throws:

java.util.EmptyStackException - Indicates that this stack is empty.

push

public void push(boolean item)

Push a new item onto this stack. The new item may be the null reference.

Parameters:

item - the item to be pushed onto this stack

Postcondition:

The item has been pushed onto this stack.

Throws:

java.lang.OutOfMemoryError - Indicates insufficient memory for increasing the stack's capacity.

size

public int size()

Accessor method to determine the number of items in this stack.

Parameters:

- - none

Returns:

the number of items in this stack
