Write a program to Evaluation of a postfix expression


#include <stdio.h> #include <ctype.h> #include <string.h> #define MAX 100 // Maximum size of stack // Global stack and top index int stack[MAX]; int top = -1; // Function to push an integer onto the stack void push(int x) { // Push (Inserting Element in stack) operation if (top == MAX - 1) { printf("Stack overflow\n"); } else { stack[++top] = x; // Push the integer onto the stack } } // Function to pop an integer from the stack int pop() { // Pop (Removing element from stack) if (top == -1) { // Check if stack is empty printf("Stack underflow\n"); return -1; // Return -1 to indicate underflow } else { return stack[top--]; // Return the top integer and remove it } } // Function to perform the operation int performOperation(int operand1, int operand2, char operation) { switch (operation) { case '+': return operand1 + operand2; case '-': return operand1 - operand2; case '*': return operand1 * operand2; case '/': return operand1 / operand2; default: return 0; // Return 0 for unknown operation } } // Function to evaluate the postfix expression int evaluatePostfixExpression(char* expression) { int length = strlen(expression); // Iterate from left to right for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) { char c = expression[i]; if (isdigit(c)) { // Convert char digit to int and push onto the stack push(c - '0'); // Push the integer value of the digit } else { // Pop the top two elements for the operation int operand2 = pop(); // Order of popping is important for correct operation int operand1 = pop(); // Perform the operation and push the result back onto the stack int result = performOperation(operand1, operand2, c); push(result); } } return pop(); // Return the final result } int main() { char expression[MAX]; printf("Enter a postfix expression: "); scanf("%s", expression); int result = evaluatePostfixExpression(expression); printf("Result of Postfix Expression: %d\n", result); return 0; }
