Queue
A simple queue abstraction, backed by linked list or priority queue.
Queue type
queue<Type>
Subtypes | Supertypes | Comparable types |
|---|---|---|
deque<Type> | sequence<Type> | java.util.Deque<Type> |
Queue creation
new linkedlist
new priority_queue
Parameter type | Result type |
|---|---|
Type... sequence<? extends Type> | queue<Type> |
Creates an empty queue. Optionally, initial values may be specified right in the new linked list creation expression.
queue<string> test = new linkedlist<string> {"A", "B", "C"};
Alternatively, a sequence may be specified that is used to copy elements from.
queue<Type> = new linkedlist<Type> (sequence);
