This is another very popular question from larger companies, and requires you to be familiar with linked lists, arrays and stacks.

This question is a bit simpler - but if you're a C# person it might be a bit from left field as .NET folks typically don't think about stacks and queues very much. It's a good thing to know as they're used in interviews quite often.

This question is a bit vague as I decided to “evolve” it as Jon coded. I started with:

Assume there are no other list types in .NET other than a Stack and a Linked List. Create a Queue

Which evolved to …

Create a Queue from two stacks.

If you want to follow along in JavaScript feel free. An Array can be used as a stack with push and pop.
