This document discusses stacks, which are non-linear data structures that follow the LIFO (last in, first out) principle. Stacks have operations like push and pop that insert and remove elements from the top of the stack. Pushing adds an element and increments the top pointer, while popping removes an element and decrements the top pointer. Stacks have applications in expression evaluation, memory management, and recursion. The document provides algorithms and code examples for implementing push and pop operations on a stack.
