232 Implement Queue using Stacks

LeetCode

Implement a first in first out (FIFO) queue using only two stacks. The implemented queue should support all the functions of a normal queue (push, peek, pop, and empty).

Implement the MyQueue class:

void push(int x) Pushes element x to the back of the queue.
int pop() Removes the element from the front of the queue and returns it.
int peek() Returns the element at the front of the queue.
boolean empty() Returns true if the queue is empty, false otherwise.

Notes:

You must use only standard operations of a stack, which means only push to top, peek/pop from top, size, and is empty operations are valid.
Depending on your language, the stack may not be supported natively. You may simulate a stack using a list or deque (double-ended queue) as long as you use only a stack's standard operations.

Example 1:

Input
["MyQueue", "push", "push", "peek", "pop", "empty"][], [1], [2], [], [], []]

Output
[null, null, null, 1, 1, false]

Explanation
MyQueue myQueue = new MyQueue();
myQueue.push(1); // queue is: [1]
myQueue.push(2); // queue is: [1, 2] (leftmost is front of the queue)
myQueue.peek(); // return 1
myQueue.pop(); // return 1, queue is [2]
myQueue.empty(); // return false


使用 2 个栈,当一个栈的元素全部弹出并压入另一个栈时,顺序就颠倒了,变成队列

class MyQueue {

Deque<Integer> stack1, stack2;

public MyQueue() {
stack1 = new LinkedList<>();
stack2 = new LinkedList<>();
}

public void push(int x) {
stack1.push(x);
}

public int pop() {
if(stack2.isEmpty()) transfer();
return stack2.pop();
}

public int peek() {
if(stack2.isEmpty()) transfer();
return stack2.peek();
}

private void transfer(){
while(!stack1.isEmpty()){
stack2.push(stack1.pop());
}
}

public boolean empty() {
return stack1.isEmpty() && stack2.isEmpty();
}
}
