If you want to practice data structure and algorithm programs, you can go through 100+ java coding interview questions.
In this program, we will see how to implement stack using Linked List in java.
The Stack is an abstract data type that demonstrates Last in first out (LIFO) behavior. We will implement the same behavior using Linked List.
There are two most important operations of Stack:
Push: We will push element to beginning of linked list to demonstrate push behavior of  stack.Pop: We will remove first element of linked list to demonstrate pop behavior of Stack .
Java Program:
Lets create a java program to create stack using Linked List.

Element removed from LinkedList: 75
Element removed from LinkedList: 60
Element removed from LinkedList: 10
40 80 50 20
Element removed from LinkedList: 60
Element removed from LinkedList: 10
40 80 50 20
That’s all about implement stack using Linked List in java.
