Abstract

Queue is the concept used in data structures. It is also referred to the linear data structure as the object or item can be added in one terminal and the item can be retrieved from the other end. Item, which is added to one end, is called as REAR and the item that is retrieved from the other end is called as FRONT. Queue is used in array as well as in linked list of the computer programs mainly used by the programmers. Queue follows the concept of FIFO (First-In-First-Out) . It means that the items, which are enters first will be accessed or retrieved first.
