Re: foreach and stack, iterating from the bottom-up?

It's possible to achieve what you want, without adapting it in your logic:

import java.util.*;

public class ReverseStackIteration {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
     Stack<String> stack = new Stack<String>();
     stack.addAll(Arrays.asList("1", "2", "3", "4"));

     System.out.println("default iteration:");
     for(String e : stack)
       System.out.println(e);

     System.out.println("reverse iteration:");
     for(String e : reverseIterable(stack))
       System.out.println(e);
   }

   public static <E> Iterable<E> reverseIterable(
       final List<E> list) {
     return new Iterable<E>() {

       @Override
       public Iterator<E> iterator() {
         final ListIterator<E> iter
             = list.listIterator(list.size());
         return new Iterator<E>() {

           @Override
           public boolean hasNext() {
             return iter.hasPrevious();
           }

           @Override
           public E next() {
             return iter.previous();
           }

           @Override
           public void remove() {
             iter.remove();
           }
         };
       }
     };
   }

}
