Not exactly. If you want to know more about how arrays work, you should read this: http://www.dsource.org/projects/dcollections/wiki/ArrayArticle It's a great read. As for using an array as a stack, you can do it with a wrapper struct, but using it by itself would result in a lot more reallocations than you'd want, as discussed here: https://www.semitwist.com/articles/article/view/don-t-use-arrays-as-stacks - Jonathan M Davis
