/**
 *  The <tt>LinkedStack</tt> class represents a last-in-first-out (LIFO) stack of
 *  generic items.
 *  It supports the usual <em>push</em> and <em>pop</em> operations, along with methods
 *  for peeking at the top item, testing if the stack is empty, and iterating through
 *  the items in LIFO order.
 *  <p>
 *  This implementation uses a singly-linked list with a non-static nested class for 
 *  linked-list nodes. See {@link Stack} for a version that uses a static nested class.
 *  The <em>push</em>, <em>pop</em>, <em>peek</em>, <em>size</em>, and <em>is-empty</em>
 *  operations all take constant time in the worst case.
 *  <p>
 *  For additional documentation, see <a href="/algs4/13stacks">Section 1.3</a> of
 *  <i>Algorithms, 4th Edition</i> by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne.
