  2. Double-ended queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue

    Both the basic and most common list types in computing, queues and stacks can be considered specializations of deques, and can be implemented using deques. A deque is a data structure that allows users to perform push and pop operations at both ends, providing flexibility in managing the order of elements.

  3. Peek (data type operation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peek_(data_type_operation)

    Priority queue (such as a heap) Double-ended queue (deque) Double-ended priority queue (DEPQ) Single-ended types, such as stack, generally only admit a single peek, at the end that is modified. Double-ended types, such as deques, admit two peeks, one at each end. Names for peek vary. "Peek" or "top" are common for stacks, while for queues ...

  4. Stack (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_(abstract_data_type)

    Similarly to a stack of plates, adding or removing is only practical at the top. Simple representation of a stack runtime with push and pop operations. In computer science, a stack is an abstract data type that serves as a collection of elements with two main operations: Push, which adds an element to the collection, and

  5. Queue (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queue_(abstract_data_type)

    A queue may be implemented as circular buffers and linked lists, or by using both the stack pointer and the base pointer. Queues provide services in computer science, transport, and operations research where various entities such as data, objects, persons, or events are stored and held to be processed later. In these contexts, the queue ...

  6. Command pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_pattern

    A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the Command design pattern. [3]In the above UML class diagram, the Invoker class doesn't implement a request directly. Instead, Invoker refers to the Command interface to perform a request (command.execute()), which makes the Invoker independent of how the request is performed.

  7. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    Both stacks and queues are often implemented using linked lists, and simply restrict the type of operations which are supported. The skip list is a linked list augmented with layers of pointers for quickly jumping over large numbers of elements, and then descending to the next layer. This process continues down to the bottom layer, which is the ...

  8. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    While priority queues are often implemented using heaps, they are conceptually distinct from heaps. A priority queue is an abstract data type like a list or a map; just as a list can be implemented with a linked list or with an array, a priority queue can be implemented with a heap or another method such as an ordered array.

  9. Double-ended priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_priority_queue

    One example application of the double-ended priority queue is external sorting. In an external sort, there are more elements than can be held in the computer's memory. The elements to be sorted are initially on a disk and the sorted sequence is to be left on the disk. The external quick sort is implemented using the DEPQ as follows:
