ABSTRACT
This project implements a Web Browser History Manager using the Stack data structure in the C
programming language. The manager emulates the backward and forward navigation of a web
browser. By leveraging the stack's LIFO (Last In, First Out) principle, this project provides efficient
navigation and history management for web browsing.
The key features of the project include:
1. Adding a new webpage to the browsing history.
2. Moving forward to previously visited pages.
3. Navigating backward through the browsing history.
4. Displaying user-friendly error messages for stack overflow and underflow conditions.
5. Efficient and dynamic handling of browsing sessions with minimal resource usage.
INTRODUCTION
The project aims to utilize the Stack data structure to simulate basic web browser navigation. By
understanding and implementing stack operations, this project seeks to:
1. Model a web browser's forward and backward navigation.
2. Provide an efficient way to manage web page history.
3. Enhance programming skills by applying stack operations in a real-world scenario.
The Web Browser History Manager uses:
- Push Operation: Adds new web pages to the stack.
- Pop Operation: Navigates back through previously visited pages.
