QUEUE In C#

In this article you will learn about QUEUE.

Queue is FIFO (First In First Out) collection type & Generic class. Queue collection classes automatically size as required.

Syntax:

Queue<T>

Example:

  1. Queue<int> rollno = new Queue<int>();   
I like QUEUE collection, FIFO is also one kind of method to maintain the stock. There is no extra code required to follow FIFO. It is a readymade tool. You will see uses of QUEUE step by step.

I had created CONSOLE APPLICATION to work with QUEUE.

3. The following are Methods and Properties of QUEUE,

 

  • Enqueue
  • DeQueue
  • Peek
  • ToArray
  • TrimExcess
  • Count
  • Clear
  • Contains

a. Enqueue : To add a new object at the end of the Queue List.

Enqueue

  1. Queue < int > StudentRollNos = new Queue < int > ();  
  2. //Enqueue to Add New Item in Queue List  
  3. StudentRollNos.Enqueue(101);  
  4. StudentRollNos.Enqueue(102);  
  5. StudentRollNos.Enqueue(103);  
  6. StudentRollNos.Enqueue(104);  
  7. StudentRollNos.Enqueue(105);  
  8. Console.WriteLine("Studnet Roll List");  
  9. foreach(int studentRoll in StudentRollNos)  
  10. {  
  11.     Console.WriteLine("Roll No. : " + studentRoll.ToString());  
  12. }  
  13. Console.WriteLine("End of Studnet Roll List");  
  14. Console.ReadKey();  
b. DeQueue: To remove first object from the Queue List.

DeQueue
  1. StudentRollNos.Dequeue();  
c. Peek: To get the first object from Queue List.

Peek
  1. StudentRollNos.Peek();  
d. ToArray: To convert your QUEUE list to an array.

ToArray
  1. Var StudentArray = StudentRollNos.ToArray();  
e. TrimExcess: To reduce the uses of QUEUE memory usage.

TrimExcess

f. Count: To get the number of objects in QUEUE.

Count
  1. StudentRollNos.Count()  
g. Clear: To erase / remove all the objects from the QUEUE.

Clear
  1. StudentRollNos.Clear()  
h. Contains: To check whether an object is in the Queue.

Contains
