Linked lists are generally implemented using pointers to other linked list nodes which reside in memory not necessarily adjacent to the original node. If the nodes are in adjacent memory, then you still have the indirection of using pointers, and the extra memory used by storing the pointers for each node. In that case, why not use a stack defined over contiguous memory in the first place?
