A useful stack algorithm Postfix evaluation We can rewrite the infix expression 1+2 As the postfix expression “Think” like a computer “load value ‘1’ into accumulator “load value ‘2’ into register A Add value in register A to value in accumulator How about ? How about 2*3+4? How about 2+3*4?
How to implement? Can you write method that evaluates postfix expressions? double postfixeval(Object[] items) Where objects in items[] are either Double Character
Postfix evaluation using a stack 1. Make an empty stack 2. Read tokens until EOF a. If operand push onto stack b. If operator i. Pop two stack values ii. Perform binary operation iii. Push result 3. At EOF, pop final result
Trace by hand 2 3 * 4 + * +
Infix to postfix * 3 == 7 (because multiplication has higher precedence) 10 – 4 – 3 == 3 (because subtraction proceeds left to right)
Infix to postfix 4 ^ 3 ^ 2 == != 4096 Generally, Rather than:
Precidence A few simple rules: ( ) > ^ > * / > + - Subtraction associates left-to-right Exponentiation associates right to left
Infix Evaluation 1 – 2 – 4 ^ 5 * 3 * 6 / 7 ^ 2 ^ 2 == -8 (1 – 2) – ( ( ( ( 4 ^ 5) * 3) * 6) / (7 ^ ( 2 ^ 2 ) ) ) Could you write a program to evaluate stuff like this?
Postfix If we expressed (1 – 2) – ( ( ( ( 4 ^ 5) * 3) * 6) / (7 ^ ( 2 ^ 2 ) ) ) As 1 2 – 4 5 ^ 3 * 6 * ^ ^ / - Then, we could use the postfix stack evaluator

But how to go from infix to postfix? Could you write a program to do it? What data structures would you use Stack Queue How about a simple case just using “+” Operands send on to output? Operator push on stack? Pop ‘em all at the end?
More complex 2 ^ 5 – 1 == 2 5 ^ 1 – Modify the simple rule? If you are an operator, pop first, then push yourself? ok
Even more complex 3 * 2 ^ ^ * 1 – If you are an operator: Pop if the top of the stack is higher precedence than
Infix to postfix Stack Algorithm Operands : Immediately output Close parenthesis: Pop stack until open parenthesis Operators: 1. Pop all stack symbols until a symbol of lower precedence (or a right-associative symbol of equal precedence) appears. 2. Push operator EOF: pop all remaining stack symbols
