LIFO
LIFO
LIFO is an acronym that stands for last in, first out. In computer science and queueing theory this refers to the way items stored in some types of data structures are processed. By definition, in a LIFO structured linear list, elements can be added or taken off from only one end, called the "top". A LIFO structure can be illustrated with the example of a stack of trays. The last tray to be placed on top is also the first to be taken off the top.The above text is a snippet from Wikipedia: LIFO (computing)
