What is Queue?
It is a linear structure that follows first in first out ( FIFO) in which the operations are performed.
Before implementation, there are two major fundamental operations performed on a queue.
- Enqueue: This operation is used to insert the element at the rear end of the queue. It returns nothing.
- Dequeue: This operation is used to delete the element from the front end. It also returns the element which has been removed from the front. It returns an integer value.
- Peek: This is the third operation performed by the queue. This returns the element which is pointed by the front pointer in the queue. But it does not delete the element from the queue.
- Queue underflow (isempty): It is used to check if the queue is empty or not.
