Why legacy stack?

Why should we still use legacy Stack implementation for stack related questions? It’s highly discouraged in production systems, instead Deque interface is preferred.

Hello @lokeshbabu,

Thank you for raising an important point about our choice of stack implementation in the provided code snippet. I appreciate your insight, and I agree that, in modern Java development, the Deque interface is preferable over the older Stack class due to its versatility and additional methods.

We’re actively looking into this matter and exploring ways to enhance the content of the Stacks pattern. Rest assured, we’ll keep you posted once the updated version is live.

Should you have any more suggestions or feedback, please feel free to share. We greatly value your input as we strive to provide the best learning experience.

Happy learning!
