+Stack
+======
+
+A class to imitate the [Stack](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)) data structure.
+
+
+    class Stack:
+    	Class to replicate a Stack data structure.
+    	Attributes: maxlen, name
+    	Methods: pop, populate, push, top, truncate
+    
+    	def deepcopy(self):
+    		Return a deep copy of this Stack as a new object
+    
+    	def pop(self, count=1):
+    		Pop the last `count` items off of the Stack. Default 1
+    		returns the most recently popped item
+    
+    	def populate(self, itemlist, destructive=False):
+    		Push as many items as possible from `itemlist` onto the Stack
+    		if `destructive`==True, the current data will be overwritten
+    		and discard the rest.
+    
+    	def push(self, item):
+    		Push an item onto the end of the Stack
+    
+    
+    	def top(self):
+    		Return the item on the top of the stack without popping it
+    
+    	def truncate(self, value):
+    		Remove all items from the Stack after index `value`, and set
+    		`maxlen` to `value`, preventing the addition of further items.
+    		returns None
