  2. Queue (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

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

    In a FIFO data structure, the first element added to the queue will be the first one to be removed. This is equivalent to the requirement that once a new element is added, all elements that were added before have to be removed before the new element can be removed. A queue is an example of a linear data structure, or more abstractly a ...

  3. Double-ended queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue

    Double-ended queues can also be implemented as a purely functional data structure. [3]: 115 Two versions of the implementation exist. The first one, called 'real-time deque, is presented below. It allows the queue to be persistent with operations in O(1) worst-case time, but requires lazy lists with memoization. The second one, with no lazy ...

  5. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  6. Priority queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Priority_queue

    This min heap priority queue uses the min heap data structure which supports operations such as insert, minimum, extract-min, decrease-key. [23] In this implementation, the weight of the edges is used to decide the priority of the vertices. Lower the weight, higher the priority and higher the weight, lower the priority. [24]

  7. Comparison of data structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_data_structures

    A priority queue is an abstract data-type similar to a regular queue or stack. Each element in a priority queue has an associated priority. In a priority queue, elements with high priority are served before elements with low priority. Priority queues support the following operations: insert: add an element to the queue with an associated priority.

  8. Bucket queue - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucket_queue

    A bucket queue has the form of an array of buckets: an array data structure, indexed by the priorities, whose cells contain collections of items with the same priority as each other. With this data structure, insertion of elements and changes of their priority take constant time. Searching for and removing the minimum-priority element takes ...

  9. Abstract data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abstract_data_type

    In the spirit of functional programming, each state of an abstract data structure is a separate entity or value. In this view, each operation is modelled as a mathematical function with no side effects. Operations that modify the ADT are modeled as functions that take the old state as an argument and returns the new state as part of the result.
