Stack

You're going to create a Stack GenServer.

A stack is a common data structure similar to a list, however a stack can only push elements onto the top of the stack, and pop elements from the top of the stack.

Requirements

  • The initial stack state starts as an empty list [].
  • Create the push/2, pop/1, and start_link/1 functions as documented below.
  • Define the necessary server callbacks that update the stack's state.
{:ok, pid} = Stack.start_link([])

# Asynchronous
:ok = Stack.push(pid, 1)
:ok = Stack.push(pid, 2)
:ok = Stack.push(pid, 3)

# Synchronous
3 = Stack.pop(pid)
2 = Stack.pop(pid)
1 = Stack.pop(pid)
nil = Stack.pop(pid)
defmodule Stack do
  @moduledoc """
  iex> {:ok, pid} = Stack.start_link([])
  iex> :ok = Stack.push(pid, 1)
  iex> Stack.pop(pid)
  1
  iex> Stack.pop(pid)
  nil
  """

  use GenServer

  def start_link(_opts) do
  end

  def push(stack_pid, element) do
  end

  def pop(stack_pid) do
  end

  # Define the necessary Server callback functions:
end
