Design Circular Queue

Design your implementation of the circular queue. The circular queue is a linear data structure in which the operations are performed based on FIFO (First In First Out) principle and the last position is connected back to the first position to make a circle. It is also called "Ring Buffer".

One of the benefits of the circular queue is that we can make use of the spaces in front of the queue. In a normal queue, once the queue becomes full, we cannot insert the next element even if there is a space in front of the queue. But using the circular queue, we can use the space to store new values.

Your implementation should support following operations:

• MyCircularQueue(k): Constructor, set the size of the queue to be k.

• Front: Get the front item from the queue. If the queue is empty, return -1.

• Rear: Get the last item from the queue. If the queue is empty, return -1.

• enQueue(value): Insert an element into the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful.

• deQueue(): Delete an element from the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful.

• isEmpty(): Checks whether the circular queue is empty or not.

• isFull(): Checks whether the circular queue is full or not.

Example:

MyCircularQueue circularQueue = new MycircularQueue(3); // set the size to be 3
circularQueue.enQueue(1);  // return true
circularQueue.enQueue(2);  // return true
circularQueue.enQueue(3);  // return true
circularQueue.enQueue(4);  // return false, the queue is full
circularQueue.Rear();  // return 3
circularQueue.isFull();  // return true
circularQueue.deQueue();  // return true
circularQueue.enQueue(4);  // return true
circularQueue.Rear();  // return 4

Note:

• All values will be in the range of [0, 1000].

• The number of operations will be in the range of [1, 1000].

• Please do not use the built-in Queue library.

Analysis

Array 数组实现：

重点在于确定循环队列空和满的情况，以及确定下一个rear和front的下标位置。

设定一个 int length 可以记录当前queue的元素个数，和循环队列的大小比较就可以得到是否满，检查length是否为0，则检测队列是否为空。

对于rear和front的下标位置有两种可行思路：

1. front代表queue的头部元素位置，rear代表queue的尾部元素位置；初始化rear=-1, front=0

2. front代表queue的头部元素位置，rear代表queue的尾部可以填充新元素的位置；初始化时：rear=0, front=0

Tricky之处在于对于1，读取Front()和Rear()可以直接用front和rear作为下标，但是对于2，读取Rear()时，需要计算下标：(rear + q.length - 1) % q.length

Solution

Array Implementation 1 - init front = 0, rear = -1

class MyCircularQueue {
    private int length;
    private int rear, front;
    private int[] q;

    /** Initialize your data structure here. Set the size of the queue to be k. */
    public MyCircularQueue(int k) {
        q = new int[k];
        length = 0;
        front = 0;
        rear = -1;
    }

    /** Insert an element into the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful. */
    public boolean enQueue(int value) {
        if (isFull()) {
            return false;
        }
        rear = (rear + 1) % (q.length);
        q[rear] = value;
        length++;
        return true;
    }

    /** Delete an element from the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful. */
    public boolean deQueue() {
        if (isEmpty()) {
            return false;
        }
        front = (front + 1) % (q.length);
        length--;
        return true;
    }

    /** Get the front item from the queue. */
    public int Front() {
        return isEmpty() ? -1 : q[front];
    }

    /** Get the last item from the queue. */
    public int Rear() {
        return isEmpty() ? -1 : q[rear];
    }

    /** Checks whether the circular queue is empty or not. */
    public boolean isEmpty() {
        return length == 0;
    }

    /** Checks whether the circular queue is full or not. */
    public boolean isFull() {
        return length == q.length;
    }
}

        rear = 0;
    }

    /** Insert an element into the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful. */
    public boolean enQueue(int value) {
        if (isFull()) {
            return false;
        }
        q[rear] = value;
        rear = (rear + 1) % (q.length);
        length++;
        return true;
    }

    /** Delete an element from the circular queue. Return true if the operation is successful. */
    public boolean deQueue() {
        if (isEmpty()) {
            return false;
        }
        front = (front + 1) % (q.length);
        length--;
        return true;
    }

    /** Get the front item from the queue. */
    public int Front() {
        return isEmpty() ? -1 : q[front];
    }

    /** Get the last item from the queue. */
    public int Rear() {
        return isEmpty() ? -1 : q[(rear + q.length - 1) % q.length];
    }

    /** Checks whether the circular queue is empty or not. */
    public boolean isEmpty() {
        return length == 0;
    }

    /** Checks whether the circular queue is full or not. */
    public boolean isFull() {
        return length == q.length;
    }
}
