LIFO
Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000680
A method for managing data in a stack, where the last item added to the collection is the first one to be removed. This principle means that new elements are placed on top of the stack, and retrieval operations always access the most recently added element. A common analogy for LIFO is a stack of plates.
