Stacks
A stack is a last in, first out data structure that can only have data added or removed from the top. The stack has limited size and the stack pointed will always point to the value at the top of the stack. An empty stack thus has a stack pointer value of 0. You can only push an item if the stack is not full. You can only pop an item if the stack is not empty.

Push
When an item is pushed it is added to the top of the stack. if Bill is at value one and Ted is pushed, he would be added to value 2.
Pop
Using the example from before, if Bob was at value 1 and Bill was at value 2, the value from the top of the stack would be removed. so Bill would be removed, just leaving Bob at value 1.
