@Srinivas:
Sorry for the confusion.
But if we have a stack {5,8,3,4,2} with 5 as the last input,ie,top,
do we have to arrange the stack such that s={2,3,4,5,8}with 2 as the top?
if I am getting it correct,then shouldn't your algo be modified slightly as
follows:?
reverse(stack *s){
IsEmpty(s)
return;
top = pop(s);
reverse(s);
ascending(s, top);
}
ascending(stack *s, int top){
IsEmpty(s){
push(top);
return;
}
i = pop(s);
if(i > top){
push(top);
}
else{
ascending(s, top);
push(i);
}
}
