Hello @Velpus Captiosus, Welcome to Code Forum! What's one interesting fact you can share regarding Data Structures?

Both LIFO and FILO data structures have their uses.FILO data structures are used a lot in complilers and interpreters because if you call a function inside another function then you must process first the called function and when ur done processing the called function u continue with next instruction so lets say you have

void innerFunction(int x,int y)
{
.....
.....
}


void myFunction(char c)
{
......
......
innerFunction(5,4);
......
......

}

when the innerFunction is called we must create space in the memory for the local variables x and y then after we are done with them we can continue with the next instruction. So you add the variables x,y to the call stack then remove them so a stack comes in handy.
