    Among the following statements about stacks, which one is NOT correct?
    Question



    Among the following statements about stacks, which one is NOT correct?

    A.

    New nodes can only be added to the top of the stack.

    B.

    Stacks can be implemented using linked lists.

    C.

    Stacks are first-in, first-out data structures.

    D.

    The last node (at the bottom) of a stack has a null (0) link.

    E.

    Stacks are very useful

    Correct option is C

    Stacks follow the Last-In, First-Out (LIFO) principle, where the last element added is the first to be removed. This makes the statement about "first-in, first-out" incorrect, as that describes queues.
    Important Key Points:
    1. LIFO: Last element added is accessed first.
    2. Stacks can be implemented using arrays or linked lists.
    3. Common applications include recursion management and backtracking.
    Knowledge Booster:
    · FIFO (First-In, First-Out): Followed by queues, not stacks.
    · Stacks are often used in compilers for syntax checking and memory management.
    · Operations on stacks include push, pop, and peek.
