Challenge: Implement a Queue Using Stacks
We have seen the difference between stacks and queues, but is it possible to make one from the other? Let's find out.
We'll cover the following
Problem Statement #
You have to implement enqueue()
and dequeue()
functions in the newQueue
class using the myStack
class we created earlier. enqueue()
will insert a value into the queue and dequeue
will remove a value from the queue.
Input #
-
enqueue(int value): A value to insert into the queue.
-
dequeue(): Does not require inputs.
Output #
-
enqueue(): Returns
True
after inserting the value into the queue. -
dequeue(): Pops out and returns the oldest value in the queue.
Sample Input #
value = 5 // queue = [1, 2, 3, 4]
enqueue(value)
dequeue()
Sample Output #
True //queue = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
1 // queue = [2, 3, 4, 5]
