Maximum Element


Problem Statement :


You have an empty sequence, and you will be given N queries. Each query is one of these three types:

1 x  -Push the element x into the stack.
2    -Delete the element present at the top of the stack.
3    -Print the maximum element in the stack.
Input Format

The first line of input contains an integer, N . The next N lines each contain an above mentioned query. (It is guaranteed that each query is valid.)

Constraints

 1 < = N < = 10 ^5
 1 < = x < =  10^9
1 <=  type <= 3


Output Format

For each type 3 query, print the maximum element in the stack on a new line.

Queue using Two Stacks

A queue is an abstract data type that maintains the order in which elements were added to it, allowing the oldest elements to be removed from the front and new elements to be added to the rear. This is called a First-In-First-Out (FIFO) data structure because the first element added to the queue (i.e., the one that has been waiting the longest) is always the first one to be removed. A basic que
