Revisit Of Stack Applications • Applications in which the stack cannot be replaced with a queue. • Parentheses matching. • Towers of Hanoi. • Switchbox routing. • Method invocation and return. • Try-catch-throw implementation. • Application in which the stack may be replaced with a queue. • Rat in a maze. • Results in finding shortest path to exit.

Derive From ArrayLinearList • to perform each opertion in O(1) time (excluding array doubling), we need a customized array representation.

Custom Linked Code • Develop a linked class for Queue from scratch to get better preformance than obtainable by deriving from ExtendedChain.
queue[] [2] [3] [1] [4] [0] [5] Custom Array Queue • Use a 1D array queue. • Circular view of array.
[2] [3] A B C [1] [4] [0] [5] Custom Array Queue • Possible configuration with 3 elements.
[2] [3] C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] Custom Array Queue • Another possible configuration with 3 elements.
[2] [3] [2] [3] A B rear rear front front C C [1] [4] [1] [4] B A [0] [5] [0] [5] Custom Array Queue • Use integer variables front and rear. • front is one position counterclockwise from first element • rear gives position of last element
[2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Add An Element • Move rear one clockwise.
[2] [3] A B front C [1] [4] [0] [5] rear Add An Element • Move rear one clockwise. • Then put into queue[rear]. D
[2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Remove An Element • Move front one clockwise.
[2] [3] front A B rear C [1] [4] [0] [5] Remove An Element • Move front one clockwise. • Then extract from queue[front].
[2] [3] A B rear front C [1] [4] [0] [5] Moving rear Clockwise • rear++; • if(rear = = queue.length) rear = 0; • rear = (rear + 1) % queue.length;
[2] [3] rear front C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] Empty That Queue
[2] [3] rear C [1] [4] B [0] [5] Empty That Queue front
[2] [3] rear C [1] [4] [0] [5] Empty That Queue front
[2] [3] rear [1] [4] [0] [5] Empty That Queue • When a series of removes causes the queue to become empty, front = rear. • When a queue is constructed, it is empty. • So initialize front = rear = 0. front
[2] [3] rear front C [1] [4] B A [0] [5] A Full Tank Please
[2] [3] rear front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please D C B A
[2] [3] front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please rear D E C B A
[2] [3] front [1] [4] [0] [5] A Full Tank Please D E C F B A rear • When a series of adds causes the queue to become full, front = rear. • So we cannot distinguish between a full queue and an empty queue!
Ouch!!!!! • Remedies. • Don’t let the queue get full. • When the addition of an element will cause the queue to be full, increase array size. • This is what the text does. • Define a boolean variable lastOperationIsPut. • Following each put set this variable to true. • Following each remove set to false. • Queue is empty iff (front == rear) && !lastOperationIsPut • Queue is full iff (front == rear) && lastOperationIsPut
Ouch!!!!! • Remedies (continued). • Define an integer variable size. • Following each put do size++. • Following each remove do size--. • Queue is empty iff (size == 0) • Queue is full iff (size == queue.length) • Performance is slightly better when first strategy is used.
