Time and Space Complexity analysis of Stack operations
Last Updated :

What is Stack?
Stack is a linear data structure that follows a particular order in which the elements are inserted and deleted. A stack follows the principle of last in first out(LIFO) which means that the last element inserted into the stack should be removed first. Consider an example of plates stacked over one another in the canteen. The plate which is at the top is the first one to be removed, i.e. the plate which has been placed at the bottommost position remains in the stack for the longest period of time. So, it can be simply seen to follow LIFO(Last In First Out)/FILO(First In Last Out) order. A stack can be implemented using Arrays or Linked Lists.
Complexity analysis of different stack operations:
1) push():
This operation pushes an element on top of the stack and the top pointer points to the newly pushed element. It takes one parameter and pushes it onto the stack.
Below is the implementation of push() using Array :
C++
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
class Stack {
public:
int stack[10];
int MAX = 10;
int top;
Stack() { top = -1; }
void push(int val)
{
// If top is pointing to
// maximum size of stack
if (top >= MAX - 1) {
// Stack is full
cout << "Stack Overflow\n";
return;
}
// Point top to new top
top++;
// Insert new element at top of stack
stack[top] = val;
cout << val
<< " pushed into stack successfully !\n";
}
};
int main()
{
Stack st;
st.push(1);
st.push(2);
return 0;
}
// Java code to push element on top of stack
import java.io.*;
class GFG {
static class Stack {
int stack[] = new int[10];
int MAX = 10;
int top;
void stack() { top = -1; }
void push(int val)
{
// If top is pointing to maximum size of stack
if (top >= MAX - 1) {
// Stack is full
System.out.println("Stack Overflow");
return;
}
// Point top to new top
top++;
// Insert new element at top of stack
stack[top] = val;
System.out.println(
val + " pushed into stack successfully !");
}
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Stack st = new Stack();
st.push(1);
st.push(2);
}
}
// This code is contributed by lokeshmvs21.
# Python code to push elements in stack
class Stack:
def __init__(self):
self.stack = [0] * 10
self.MAX = 10
self.top = -1
def push(self, val):
# If top is pointing to maximum size of stack
if self.top >= self.MAX - 1:
# Stack is full
print("Stack Overflow")
return
# Point top to new top
self.top += 1
# Insert new element at top of stack
self.stack[self.top] = val
print(str(val) + " pushed into stack successfully !\n")
if __name__ == "__main__":
st = Stack()
st.push(1)
st.push(2)
# This code is contributed by adityamaharshi21
// Include namespace system
using System;
public class GFG
{
class Stack
{
public int[] stack = new int[10];
public int MAX = 10;
public int top;
public void _stack()
{
this.top = -1;
}
public void push(int val)
{
// If top is pointing to maximum size of stack
if (this.top >= this.MAX - 1)
{
// Stack is full
Console.WriteLine("Stack Overflow");
return;
}
// Point top to new top
this.top++;
// Insert new element at top of stack
this.stack[this.top] = val;
Console.WriteLine(val.ToString() + " pushed into stack successfully !");
}
}
public static void Main(String[] args)
{
var st = new Stack();
st.push(1);
st.push(2);
}
}
// This code is contributed by aadityaburujwale.
// JS code for above operation
class Stack {
constructor() {
this.stack = [];
this.MAX = 10;
this.top = -1;
}
push(val) {
// If top is pointing to
// maximum size of stack
if (this.top >= this.MAX - 1) {
// Stack is full
console.log("Stack Overflow");
return;
}
// Point top to new top
this.top++;
// Insert new element at top of stack
this.stack[this.top] = val;
console.log(val, " pushed into stack successfully !");
}
};
let st = new Stack();
st.push(1);
st.push(2);
// This code is contributed by adityamaharshi21
Output1 pushed into stack successfully !
2 pushed into stack successfully !
Complexity Analysis:
- Time Complexity: O(1), In the push function a single element is inserted at the last position. This takes a single memory allocation operation which is done in constant time.
- Auxiliary Space: O(1), As no extra space is being used.
Below is the implementation of push() using Linked List :
C++
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
class Node {
public:
int data;
Node* next;
Node(int val)
{
data = val;
next = NULL;
}

class Stack {

Stack() { top = NULL; }
void push(int val)
{
// Create new node temp and
// allocate memory in heap
Node* temp = new Node(val);
// If stack is empty
if (!top) {
top = temp;
cout << val
<< " pushed into stack successfully !\n";
return;
}
temp->next = top;
top = temp;
cout << val
<< " pushed into stack successfully !\n";
}
};

return 0;

}
void push(int val){
// Create new node temp and allocate memory in heap
Node temp = new Node(val);
// If stack is empty

System.out.println(val + " pushed into stack successfully !");

Complexity Analysis:
- Time Complexity: O(1), Only a new node is created and the pointer of the last node is updated. This includes only memory allocation operations. Hence it can be said that insertion is done in constant time.
- Auxiliary Space: O(1), No extra space is used.
2) pop():
This operation removes the topmost element in the stack and returns an error if the stack is already empty.

public:

// Stack is full
cout << "Stack Overflow\n";
return;
}
// Point top to new top
top++;
// Insert new element at top of stack
stack[top] = val;
cout << val
<< " pushed into stack successfully !\n";
}
void pop()
{
// Stack is already empty
if (top < 0) {
cout << "Stack Underflow";
}
else {
// Removing top of stack
int x = stack[top--];
cout << "Element popped from stack : " << x
<< "\n";
}
}

Complexity Analysis:
- Time Complexity: O(1), In array implementation, only an arithmetic operation is performed i.e., the top pointer is decremented by 1. This is a constant time function.
- Auxiliary Space: O(1), No extra space is utilized for deleting an element from the stack.

Complexity Analysis:
- Time Complexity: O(1). In linked list implementation also a single memory address is accessed. It takes constant time.
- Auxiliary Space: O(1). No extra space is utilized to access the element because only the value in the node at the top pointer is read.

// Insert new element at top of stack
