stack related question in microprocessor

Question

can we also do queue operations in microprocessor? (given that the microprocessor supports stack operations )

@Srinivas, I'd like to, but I don't understand what's asked here... — P Shved, Apr 26 '10 at 07:07
what she is asking is there is an inbuilt stack in microprocessor,so along the same lines is there a queue also? — Srinivas Reddy Thatiparthy, Apr 26 '10 at 08:10

No. The stack is built in insofar as there's a register and operations to support it. There is no similar support for a queue.

If you want a queue, you need to implement it in code.

Have stack, want Queue??...

You can always implement queues in software. Refer this Q for more:
