Queues
Queues are container adaptors that store elements in a first-in-first-out (FIFO) order. Elements inserted into the queue first are removed first.
Syntax
#include <queue>
queue<type> queueName;
type
is the data type that will be stored in the queue.
Codebyte Example
The following codebyte example creates an empty queue, adds elements using the .push()
method, and then prints the elements from the queue:
Queues
