Difference between ADT and Classes?
abstract-data-type, c, data-structures
Solution
The key to the difference is abstract. Think of an ADT more like an interface - a class with only method declarations, no implementation details.
As an example, a Stack ADT defines the basic stack operations like push and pop (but says nothing of how these operations should be implemented), while a Stack class would use either a linked-list or an array to actually implement these operations.
Problem
``` ADT is the set of operations. ADT's are mathematical abstractions. ``` Does this mean that ADT are same as classes or am i confusing both together ?
