std::stack::pop

void pop();
Remove top element
Removes the element on top of the stack, effectively reducing its size by one.

The element removed is the latest element inserted into the stack, whose value can be retrieved by calling member stack::top.

This calls the removed element's destructor.

This member function effectively calls the member function pop_back of the underlying container object.

Parameters

none

Return value

none

// stack::push/pop
#include <iostream>       // std::cout
#include <stack>          // std::stack

int main ()
{
  std::stack<int> mystack;

  for (int i=0; i<5; ++i) mystack.push(i);

  std::cout << "Popping out elements...";
  while (!mystack.empty())
  {
     std::cout << ' ' << mystack.top();
     mystack.pop();
  }
  std::cout << '\n';

  return 0;
}

Output:
Popping out elements... 4 3 2 1 0


Complexity

Constant (calling pop_back on the underlying container).

Data races

The container and up to all its contained elements are modified.

Exception safety

Provides the same level of guarantees as the operation performed on the underlying container object.
