Description

A visualization of the push and pop methods of a simple stack implemented using a singly linked list. The learner may choose the function push and give an integer as its input or the function pop.

Evaluation

The learner may choose the actions and the input. The movements are smoothly animated. There is a weakness in that the pop operation seems to indicate that the popped link node just "goes away" which doesn't give the user any indication of the difference between properly handling the memory vs. having a memory leak. It might become tedious to manually enter what is essentially meaningless data values.
