* the Algorithm:
* write a java program to convert infix to postfix
create(OpStk) OpStk.push("#") token = nextToken()
while (token != "#")
if (token is an operand)
append token to postfix expression
else if (token is "(") // Left paren - Start of sub-expr
OpStk.push( token )
else if (token is ")") // Right paren - End of sub-expr
pop operators off the stack and append to the postfix expression
-
stop when you've popped a "("
else (token is an operator)
opr = OpStk.top()
while (StkPriority(opr) >= InPriority(token))
opr = OpStk.pop()
append opr to the postfix expression opr = OpStk.top()
endwhile
OpStk.push( token )
endif
token = nextToken()
endwhile
while (not OpStk.isEmpty())
opr = OpStk.pop()
append token to postfix expression
endwhile
