Solution: Min Stack

Explore how to design and implement a min stack in Java that supports push, pop, and min operations all in constant time. Understand the use of two stacks to achieve this efficiency and analyze the time and space complexities involved.

We'll cover the following...

Statement

Design a stack data structure to retrieve the minimum value in O(1)O(1) time. The following functions must be implemented:

  • min(): Returns the minimum value in the stack in constant time.
  • push(int value): Pushes a value onto the stack.
  • pop(): Removes and returns a value from the top of the stack.

All functions should be implemented with a time complexity of O(1)O(1).

Constraints:

  • 105-10^5 \leq
