sorry if this is not the appropiate place to post this..but its short  
anyway..
hi there all you all. I in a dilema here...

stack<employee> my_stack;

my_stack.push(employee("john1"));
my_stack.push(employee("john2"));

employee i = my_stack.top();
my_stack.pop();
my_stack.pop();

My question is how 'i' is assigned to the top of the stack since the 'top'  
method return a reference. what is the mechanism here? copy constructor?

thanks in advance.
