Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the main advantage of using a deque over a regular queue?
  • Step 1: Understand what a regular queue is. A regular queue allows you to add elements at the back and remove elements from the front.
  • Step 2: Learn what a deque is. A deque (double-ended queue) allows you to add and remove elements from both the front and the back.
  • Step 3: Compare the two. A regular queue is limited to adding at the back and removing from the front, while a deque gives you more options.
  • Step 4: Identify the main advantage. The main advantage of a deque is its flexibility, as you can manage elements from both ends.
