Program Plan Intro

Queue:

  • The queue is a linear data structure used to store a set of data.
  • The queue is a collection of data that are accessed in FIFO (first-in-first-out) order for performing the operations.
  • A queue is opened at both its ends. One end is for inserting items to the queue and the other end is for removing the items from the queue.
  • The two basic operations performed on queue are,
    • enqueue() – add an item to queue.
    • dequeue() – remove an item from the queue.
  • The queue does not have fixed size.

A data structure called a deque is closely related to a queue. The name deque stands for “double-ended queue.” The difference between the two is that with a deque, you can insert, remove, or view from either end of the queue. Implement a deque using arrays
Explain the differences between a statically allocated array, a dynamically allocated array, and a linked list.
In C++, develop an algorithm that adds the value val to a queue object Q. The queue is represented using an array data of size s. The algorithm should assume that the queue is not full. The most recently added item is at index r (rear), and the least recently added item is at index f (front). If the queue is empty, r = f = -1.
