Use a last-in first-out stack.

C#: Stack is useful for reversible traversal and other nested operations.

C# Program.cs
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Text.Json;
using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Globalization;
using System.Security.Cryptography;
using System.Threading;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

var stack = new Stack<int>();
stack.Push(1);
stack.Push(2);
Console.WriteLine(stack.Pop());

Details

Use Program.cs in a .NET 8 console project and run dotnet run. Uses only the .NET standard libraries. Stack is useful for reversible traversal and other nested operations.

Test inputs, results and environment

The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Unprivileged snippet process, external networking disabled, read-only root filesystem, and a fresh temporary working directory. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
