// Android-changed: removed link to collections framework docs
/**
* A linear collection that supports element insertion and removal at
* both ends. The name deque is short for "double ended queue"
* and is usually pronounced "deck". Most {@code Deque}
* implementations place no fixed limits on the number of elements
* they may contain, but this interface supports capacity-restricted
* deques as well as those with no fixed size limit.
*
* This interface defines methods to access the elements at both
* ends of the deque. Methods are provided to insert, remove, and
* examine the element. Each of these methods exists in two forms:
* one throws an exception if the operation fails, the other returns a
* special value (either {@code null} or {@code false}, depending on
* the operation). The latter form of the insert operation is
* designed specifically for use with capacity-restricted
* {@code Deque} implementations; in most implementations, insert
* operations cannot fail.
*
*
The twelve methods described above are summarized in the
* following table:
*
*
* Summary of Deque methods
*
*
* First Element (Head)
* Last Element (Tail)
*
*
*
* Throws exception
* Special value
* Throws exception
* Special value
*
*
* Insert
* {@link Deque#addFirst addFirst(e)}
* {@link Deque#offerFirst offerFirst(e)}
* {@link Deque#addLast addLast(e)}
* {@link Deque#offerLast offerLast(e)}
*
*
* Remove
* {@link Deque#removeFirst removeFirst()}
* {@link Deque#pollFirst pollFirst()}
* {@link Deque#removeLast removeLast()}
* {@link Deque#pollLast pollLast()}
*
*
* Examine
* {@link Deque#getFirst getFirst()}
* {@link Deque#peekFirst peekFirst()}
* {@link Deque#getLast getLast()}
* {@link Deque#peekLast peekLast()}
*
*
*
* This interface extends the {@link Queue} interface. When a deque is
* used as a queue, FIFO (First-In-First-Out) behavior results. Elements are
* added at the end of the deque and removed from the beginning. The methods
* inherited from the {@code Queue} interface are precisely equivalent to
* {@code Deque} methods as indicated in the following table:
*
*
* Comparison of Queue and Deque methods
*
* {@code Queue} Method
* Equivalent {@code Deque} Method
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#add add(e)}
* {@link #addLast addLast(e)}
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#offer offer(e)}
* {@link #offerLast offerLast(e)}
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#remove remove()}
* {@link #removeFirst removeFirst()}
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#poll poll()}
* {@link #pollFirst pollFirst()}
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#element element()}
* {@link #getFirst getFirst()}
*
*
* {@link java.util.Queue#peek peek()}
* {@link #peek peekFirst()}
*
*
*
* Deques can also be used as LIFO (Last-In-First-Out) stacks. This
* interface should be used in preference to the legacy {@link Stack} class.
* When a deque is used as a stack, elements are pushed and popped from the
* beginning of the deque. Stack methods are precisely equivalent to
* {@code Deque} methods as indicated in the table below:
*
*
* Comparison of Stack and Deque methods
*
* Stack Method
* Equivalent {@code Deque} Method
*
*
* {@link #push push(e)}
* {@link #addFirst addFirst(e)}
*
*
* {@link #pop pop()}
* {@link #removeFirst removeFirst()}
*
*
* {@link #peek peek()}
* {@link #peekFirst peekFirst()}
*
*
*
* Note that the {@link #peek peek} method works equally well when
* a deque is used as a queue or a stack; in either case, elements are
* drawn from the beginning of the deque.
*
*
This interface provides two methods to remove interior
* elements, {@link #removeFirstOccurrence removeFirstOccurrence} and
* {@link #removeLastOccurrence removeLastOccurrence}.
*
*
Unlike the {@link List} interface, this interface does not
* provide support for indexed access to elements.
*
*
While {@code Deque} implementations are not strictly required
* to prohibit the insertion of null elements, they are strongly
* encouraged to do so. Users of any {@code Deque} implementations
* that do allow null elements are strongly encouraged not to
* take advantage of the ability to insert nulls. This is so because
* {@code null} is used as a special return value by various methods
* to indicated that the deque is empty.
*
*
{@code Deque} implementations generally do not define
* element-based versions of the {@code equals} and {@code hashCode}
* methods, but instead inherit the identity-based versions from class
* {@code Object}.
