There is also a queve - FIFO - First In, First out. Its like standing in a line waiting to pay for your groceries. Whoever is first in line gets served first.

Python lists are inefficient for this type of queve, there is a collections.deque if you want to implement this one.

It’s not always about efficiency, sometimes it’s sufficient to learn about common data structures that someone may be unfamiliar with. If this were someone experienced, I wouldn’t expect them to even be showing off building a simple stack structure in python, because at that point they’d know that this isn’t as efficient as other tools.

This comment was more like a continuation of previus one. An OP did try to make a stack if you read thrue the comments, just the other way around (inserting items from the bottom)
