DESCRIPTION

The ::struct namespace contains a commands for processing finite stacks.

It exports a single command, ::struct::stack. All functionality provided here can be reached through a subcommand of this command.

Note: As of version 1.3.3 of this package a critcl based C implementation is available. This implementation however requires Tcl 8.4 to run.

The ::struct::stack command creates a new stack object with an associated global Tcl command whose name is stackName. This command may be used to invoke various operations on the stack. It has the following general form:

stackName option ?arg arg ...?

Option and the args determine the exact behavior of the command. The following commands are possible for stack objects:

stackName clear

Remove all items from the stack.

stackName destroy

Destroy the stack, including its storage space and associated command.

stackName get

Returns the whole contents of the stack as a list, without removing them from the stack.

stackName peek ?count?

Return the top count items of the stack, without removing them from the stack. If count is not specified, it defaults to 1. If count is 1, the result is a simple string; otherwise, it is a list. If specified, count must be greater than or equal to 1. If there are not enoughs items on the stack to fulfull the request, this command will throw an error.

stackName trim ?newsize?

Shrinks the stack to contain at most newsize elements and returns a list containing the elements which were removed. Nothing is done if the stack is already at the specified size, or smaller. In that case the result is the empty list.

stackName pop ?count?

Return the top count items of the stack, and remove them from the stack. If count is not specified, it defaults to 1. If count is 1, the result is a simple string; otherwise, it is a list. If specified, count must be greater than or equal to 1. If there are not enoughs items on the stack to fulfull the request, this command will throw an error.

stackName push item ?item...?

Push the item or items specified onto the stack. If more than one item is given, they will be pushed in the order they are listed.

stackName size

Return the number of items on the stack.
