There is no built in, pre-defined "stack" structure, no. However,
Perl's default array type can be used to model stacks, queues, sets,
and other structures.

If you want to only use an array like a stack, restrict yourself to the
push and pop functions, which add and remove elements from the back of
the array, respectively.

If you want to only use an array like a queue, use the push and shift
functions, which add an element to the back, and remove an element from
the front, respectively.

perldoc -f push
perldoc -f pop
perldoc -f shift
perldoc -f unshift
perldoc -f splice

for more information on the different possibilities.

If you access and array with push and pop, it is a stack.

perldoc -f push
perldoc -f pop
