Implement the following operations of a queue using stacks.
- push(x) -- Push element x to the back of queue.
- pop() -- Removes the element from in front of queue.
- peek() -- Get the front element.
- empty() -- Return whether the queue is empty.
- You must use only standard operations of a stack -- which means only
push to top
,peek/pop from top
,size
, andis empty
operations are valid. - Depending on your language, stack may not be supported natively. You may simulate a stack by using a list or deque (double-ended queue), as long as you use only standard operations of a stack.
- You may assume that all operations are valid (for example, no pop or peek operations will be called on an empty queue).
class Queue {
public:
// Push element x to the back of queue.
void push(int x) {
if(sta.empty()){
sta.push(x);
}else{
int tem = sta.top();
sta.pop();
push(x);
sta.push(tem);
}
}
// Removes the element from in front of queue.
void pop(void) {
if(!sta.empty()){
sta.pop();
}
}
// Get the front element.
int peek(void) {
if(!sta.empty()){
int tem = sta.top();
return tem;
}else{
return -1;
}
}
// Return whether the queue is empty.
bool empty(void) {
return sta.empty();
}
private:
stack<int> sta;
};
