The document discusses various applications of stacks including:
1) Reversing strings by pushing characters onto a stack and popping them off in reverse order.
2) Calculator operations using postfix notation and a stack.
3) Recursive functions using a stack to store previous function calls and variables.
4) Determining if a word is a palindrome by pushing characters onto a stack and comparing to the popped off characters.
Code examples are provided for reversing strings, recursive summation, and determining palindromes using stacks.
