9. 13. 5. Checking the Top: To get the element without removing: using the peek() method

You'll get an EmptyStackException thrown if the stack is empty.

import java.util.Stack;

public class MainClass {
  public static void main (String args[]) {
    Stack s = new Stack();
    s.push("A");
    s.push("B");
    s.push("C");

    System.out.println("Next: " + s.peek());
  }
}
Next: C

9. 13. 1. Stack Basics: last-in, first-out behavior
9. 13. 2. Adding Elements: To add an element to a stack, call the push() method
9. 13. 3. Removing Elements: To remove an element from the stack, the pop() method
9. 13. 4. If the size of the stack is zero, true is returned; otherwise, false is returned
9. 13. 5. Checking the Top: To get the element without removing: using the peek() method
9. 13. 6. To find out if an element is on the stack: the search() method
9. 13. 7. Demonstrate the generic Stack class.
9. 13. 8. A faster, smaller stack implementation.
9. 13. 9. A simple integer based stack.
9. 13. 10. A stack of simple integers
9. 13. 11. A very simple unsynchronized stack. This one is faster than the java.util-Version.
9. 13. 12. An implementation of the java.util.Stack based on an ArrayList instead of a Vector, so it is not synchronized to protect against multi-threaded access.
9. 13. 13. Character Stack
9. 13. 14. Growable Object stack with type specific access methods
9. 13. 15. Growable String stack with type specific access methods.
