Double ended queue
deque means double enden queue;
deque (usually pronounced like "deck") is an irregular acronym of double-ended queue. Double-ended queues are sequence containers with dynamic sizes that can be expanded or contracted on both ends (either its front or its back).
Specific libraries may implement deques in different ways, generally as some form of dynamic array. But in any case, they allow for the individual elements to be accessed directly through random access iterators, with storage handled automatically by expanding and contracting the container as needed.
Therefore, they provide a functionality similar to vectors, but with efficient insertion and deletion of elements also at the beginning of the sequence, and not only at its end. But, unlike vectors, deques are not guaranteed(保证) to store all its elements in contiguous(相邻) storage locations: accessing elements in a deque by offsetting a pointer to another element causes undefined behavior.
Both vectors and deques provide a very similar interface and can be used for similar purposes, but internally both work in quite different ways: While vectors use a single array that needs to be occasionally reallocated for growth(有时候,会重新分配), the elements of a deque can be scattered(分散) in different chunks of storage, with the container keeping the necessary information internally to provide direct access to any of its elements in constant time and with a uniform sequential interface (through iterators). Therefore, deques are a little more complex internally than vectors, but this allows them to grow more efficiently under certain circumstances, especially with very long sequences, where reallocations become more expensive.
For operations that involve(包含) frequent insertion or removals of elements at positions other than the beginning or the end, deques perform worse and have less consistent iterators and references than lists and forward lists.
Container properties
- Sequence: Elements in sequence containers are ordered in a strict linear sequence. Individual elements are accessed by their position in this sequence.
- Dynamic array: Generally implemented as a dynamic array, it allows direct access to any element in the sequence and provides relatively fast addition/removal of elements at the beginning or the end of the sequence.
- Allocator-aware: The container uses an allocator object to dynamically handle its storage needs.
Template parameters
- T: Type of the elements. Aliased as member type deque::value_type.
- Alloc Type of the allocator object used to define the storage allocation model. By default, the allocator class template is used, which defines the simplest memory allocation model and is value-independent. Aliased as member type deque::allocator_type.
Member types
member type | definition | notes |
---|---|---|
value_type | The first template parameter (T) | |
allocator_type | The second template parameter (Alloc) | defaults to: allocator |
reference | value_type& | |
const_reference | const value_type& | |
pointer | allocator_traits::pointer | for the default allocator: value_type* |
const_pointer | allocator_traits::const_pointer | for the default allocator: const value_type* |
iterator | a random access iterator to value_type | convertible to const_iterator |
const_iterator | a random access iterator to const value_type | |
reverse_iterator | reverse_iterator | |
const_reverse_iterator | reverse_iterator | |
difference_type | a signed integral type, identical to: | |
iterator_traits::difference_type | usually the same as ptrdiff_t | |
size_type | an unsigned integral type that can represent any non-negative value of difference_type | usually the same as size_t |
