for each character ch from infix expression, do
if ch is alphanumeric character, then
add ch to postfix expression
else if ch = opening parenthesis (, then
push ( into stack
else if ch = ^, then //exponential operator of higher precedence
push ^ into the stack
else if ch = closing parenthesis ), then
while stack is not empty and stack top ≠ (,
do pop and add item from stack to postfix expression
done
pop ( also from the stack
else
while stack is not empty AND precedence of ch <= precedence of stack top element, do
pop and add into postfix expression
done
push the newly coming character.
done
