Queue Explained

A queue is a fundamental data structure based on the principle of First-In-First-Out (FIFO). Elements are added to the rear and removed from the front.

Key Properties

  • Follows FIFO (First-In-First-Out) principle.

  • Insertion (enqueue) at the rear, deletion (dequeue) from the front.

  • Maintains order based on arrival time.

  • Suitable for tasks requiring sequential processing.

Queues guarantee fair processing by handling elements in the order they arrive.
