Solution

The top-of-the-stack element for a stack of size N elements would be S[N-1].

Here's why:

In most programming languages, array indexing starts from 0. This means the first element in the array is at position 0, the second element is at position 1, and so on.

So, if a stack has N elements, the last element added (which is the top of the stack) would be at position N-1.

Therefore, S[N-1] will return the top-of-the-stack element.

A stack is implemented with an array of 'A [0..N - 1]' and a varlable 'pos'.

A single array A[1..MAXSIZE] is used to implement two stacks, The two stacks grow from opposite ends of the array. Variables top1 and top2 (top1 < top2) point to the location of the topmost element in each of the stacks, If the space is to be used efficiently, the condition for "stack full" is*2 points(top1 = MAXSIZE/2) AND (top2 = MAXSIZE/2 + 1top1 + top2 = MAXSIZE(top1 = MAXSIZE/2) or (top2 = MAXSIZE)top1 = top2 - 1
