  • Two basic operations done on queue are,
    • enqueue() – add an item to queue.
    • dequeue() – remove an item from the queue.
  • When the “enqueue()” method is invoked, it checks whether the queue is full or not.
    • If the queue is full, it throws an exception.
    • If the queue has slots available, then element is added at the “rear” end...
