Design a Queue Using Stack

MediumPython

Problem

Design Queue using stack as datastructure ?

Asked in the LLD and Concurrency stage. Implement queue behavior using only stack operations. Use two internal stacks to support FIFO ordering.

Input and Output

Implement queue_using_stacks(operations). Each operation is ['enqueue', value], ['dequeue'], ['peek'], or ['empty']. Return a list containing the result of every dequeue, peek, or empty operation. Inputs will not dequeue or peek from an empty queue.

Constraints

  • 0 <= operations.length <= 1000
  • Each operation is enqueue, dequeue, peek, or empty
  • enqueue values are integers
  • dequeue and peek operations are only applied to a nonempty queue

Function Signature
