API

constructor

JS
// empty queue
const deque = new Deque();

// from an array
const deque = new Deque([1, 2, 3]);
TS
// empty queue
const deque = new Deque<number>();

// from an array
const deque = new Deque<number>([1, 2, 3]);

Deque.fromArray

JS
// empty queue
const deque = Deque.fromArray([]);

// with elements
const list = [10, 3, 8, 40, 1];
const deque = Deque.fromArray(list);

// If the list should not be mutated, use a copy of it.
const deque = Deque.fromArray(list.slice());
TS
// empty queue
const deque = Deque.fromArray<number>([]);

// with elements
const list = [10, 3, 8, 40, 1];
const deque = Deque.fromArray<number>(list);

pushFront

adds an element at the front of the queue.

deque.pushFront(30).pushFront(20).pushFront(10);

pushBack

adds an element at the back of the queue.

deque.pushBack(40).pushBack(50).pushBack(60);

front

peeks on the front element of the queue.

console.log(deque.front()); // 10

back

peeks on the back element of the queue.

console.log(deque.back()); // 60

popFront

removes and returns the front element in the queue.

console.log(deque.popFront()); // 10
console.log(deque.front()); // 20

popBack

removes and returns the back element in the queue.

console.log(deque.popBack()); // 60
console.log(deque.back()); // 50

isEmpty

checks if the queue is empty.

console.log(deque.isEmpty()); // false

size

returns the number of elements in the queue.

console.log(deque.size()); // 4

clone

creates a shallow copy of the queue.

const deque2 = Deque.fromArray([{ id: 2 }, { id: 4 } , { id: 8 }]);
const clone =  deque2.clone();

clone.popFront();

console.log(deque2.front()); // { id: 2 }
console.log(clone.front()); // { id: 4 }

toArray

returns a copy of the remaining elements as an array.

console.log(deque.toArray()); // [ 20, 30, 40, 50 ]
