Queue overflow results from trying to add an element onto a full queue and queue underflow happens when trying to remove an element from an empty queue. A bounded queue is a queue limited to a fixed number of items. [1] There are several efficient implementations of FIFO queues.
The semantics of priority queues naturally suggest a sorting method: insert all the elements to be sorted into a priority queue, and sequentially remove them; they will come out in sorted order. This is actually the procedure used by several sorting algorithms , once the layer of abstraction provided by the priority queue is removed.
In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...
This behavior can be axiomatized in various ways. For example, a common VDM (Vienna Development Method) description of a stack defines top (peek) and remove as atomic, where top returns the top value (without modifying the stack), and remove modifies the stack (without returning a value). [1] In this case pop is defined in terms of top and remove.

In computer science, a container is a class or a data structure [1] [2] whose instances are collections of other objects. In other words, they store objects in an organized way that follows specific access rules.
From a Java package name: This is a redirect from a Java package name, or the fully-qualified name of a Java class or interface, to the software project or language feature that provides that package, or the computer-science concept that it implements.
The java.util.Queue interface defines the queue data structure, which stores elements in the order in which they are inserted. New additions go to the end of the line, and elements are removed from the front. It creates a first-in first-out system. This interface is implemented by java.util.LinkedList, java.util.ArrayDeque, and java.util ...
