Double-ended queue (Decue) implementation using Doubly linked list.


A double-ended queue (dequeue or deque) is an abstract data type that generalizes a queue, for which elements can be added to or removed from either the front or rear. Deque differs from the queue abstract data type or First-In-First-Out List (FIFO), where elements can only be added to one end and removed from the other. We have given more details on Deque in the previous example

In this page you will see Deque implementation by using doble linked list.


package com.java2novice.ds.queue;

public class DequeDblLinkedListImpl<T> {

	private Node<T> front;
	private Node<T> rear;
	
	public void insertFront(T item){
		//add element at the beginning of the queue
		System.out.println("adding at front: "+item);
		Node<T> nd = new Node<T>();
		nd.setValue(item);
		nd.setNext(front);
		if(front != null) front.setPrev(nd);
		if(front == null) rear = nd;
		front = nd;
	}
	
	public void insertRear(T item){
		//add element at the end of the queue
		System.out.println("adding at rear: "+item);
		Node<T> nd = new Node<T>();
		nd.setValue(item);
		nd.setPrev(rear);
		if(rear != null) rear.setNext(nd);
		if(rear == null) front = nd;
		
		rear = nd;
	}
	
	public void removeFront(){
		if(front == null){
			System.out.println("Deque underflow!! unable to remove.");
			return;
		}
		//remove an item from the beginning of the queue
		Node<T> tmpFront = front.getNext();
		if(tmpFront != null) tmpFront.setPrev(null);
		if(tmpFront == null) rear = null;
		System.out.println("removed from front: "+front.getValue());
		front = tmpFront;
	}
	
	public void removeRear(){
		if(rear == null){
			System.out.println("Deque underflow!! unable to remove.");
			return;
		}
		//remove an item from the beginning of the queue
		Node<T> tmpRear = rear.getPrev();
		if(tmpRear != null) tmpRear.setNext(null);
		if(tmpRear == null) front = null;
		System.out.println("removed from rear: "+rear.getValue());
		rear = tmpRear;
	}
	
	public static void main(String a[]){
		DequeDblLinkedListImpl<Integer> deque = new DequeDblLinkedListImpl<Integer>();
		deque.insertFront(34);
		deque.insertFront(67);
		deque.insertFront(29);
		deque.insertFront(765);
		deque.removeFront();
		deque.removeFront();
		deque.removeFront();
		deque.insertRear(43);
		deque.insertRear(83);
		deque.insertRear(84);
		deque.insertRear(546);
		deque.insertRear(356);
		deque.removeRear();
		deque.removeRear();
		deque.removeRear();
		deque.removeRear();
		deque.removeFront();
		deque.removeFront();
		deque.removeFront();
	}
}

class Node<T>{
	
	private Node<T> prev;
	private Node<T> next;
	private T value;
	
	public Node<T> getPrev() {
		return prev;
	}
	public void setPrev(Node<T> prev) {
		this.prev = prev;
	}
	public Node<T> getNext() {
		return next;
	}
	public void setNext(Node<T> next) {
		this.next = next;
	}
	public T getValue() {
		return value;
	}
	public void setValue(T value) {
		this.value = value;
	}
}

Output:
adding at front: 34
adding at front: 67
adding at front: 29
adding at front: 765
removed from front: 765
removed from front: 29
removed from front: 67
adding at rear: 43
adding at rear: 83
adding at rear: 84
adding at rear: 546
adding at rear: 356
removed from rear: 356
removed from rear: 546
removed from rear: 84
removed from rear: 83
removed from front: 34
removed from front: 43
Deque underflow!! unable to remove.

Pass by value Vs Pass by reference
Pass by value: Passing a copy of the value, not the original reference.

Pass by reference: Passsing the address of the object, so that you can access the original object.
