Implement Stack using Queues

1 题目描述

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 back, peek/pop from front, size, 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).

2 解题思路

1.题目的意思是使用队列实现栈的操作，这两个数据结构的主要区别在于一个将元素加入到尾部，一个将元素加入头部，因此考虑使用两个队列来处理这两种差异方式，始终保持一个队列为空，每次添加元素时，添加到空队列中，然后将非空队列添加到该队列中，并清空。

2.注意一下java中Queue的用法，参考网址：http://www.cnblogs.com/linjiqin/archive/2013/05/30/3107656.html
