Dequeue in Data structure - Programmingoneonone

In Data Structure Dequeue is known as a Double Ended Queue in which we can insert and delete the data from both ends means we can perform operations enqueue and dequeue from both ends.

Dequeue | Data structures and algorithms

we can implement dequeue using an array, linked list, doubly linked list, and circular linked list. first, let’s see how we can implement dequeue using an array or list in the Python programming language.

Program to implement dequeue using array in Python.

class EmptyQueueError(Exception):
    pass

class Deque:

    def __init__(self):
        self.items = []

    def is_empty(self):
        return self.items == []

    def size(self):
        return len(self.items)

    def insert_front(self, item):
        self.items.insert(0, item)

    def insert_rear(self, item):
        self.items.append(item)

    def delete_front(self):
        if self.is_empty():
            raise EmptyQueueError("Queue is Empty")
        return self.items.pop(0)

    def delete_rear(self):
        if self.is_empty():
            raise EmptyQueueError("Queue is Empty")
        return self.items.pop()

    def first(self):
        if self.is_empty():
            raise EmptyQueueError("Queue is Empty")
        return self.items[0]

    def last(self):
        if self.is_empty():
            raise EmptyQueueError("Queue is Empty")
        return self.items[-1]

    def display(self):
        print(self.items)

        choice = int(input("Enter your choice : "))

        if choice == 1:
            x = int(input("Enter the element : "))
            qu.insert_front(x)

             qu.insert_rear(x)
        elif choice == 3:
            x = qu.delete_front()
            print("Element deleted from front end is ",x)
        elif choice == 4:
            x = qu.delete_rear()
            print("Element deleted from rear end is ",x)
        elif choice == 5:
            print("First element is ",qu.first())

        elif choice == 8:
            print("Size of queue ", qu.size())
        elif choice == 9:
            break        else:
            print("wrong choice ")
        print()

we can also implement dequeue using a doubly-linked list.

Dequeue in Data structures and algorithms

to easily implement of dequeue using the doubly linked list in the data structure. we stored the front and last node’s references in the front and rear variables. so we can easily enqueue and dequeue from both ends.

we already know how to insert and delete a node from the first and last position of a circular linked list. if you don’t know then refer to the articles given below.

Deletion in the doubly linked list
