PHP Ds\Queue Functions Complete Reference

A Queue is a linear data structure that follows a particular order in which the operations are performed. The order of queue is First In First Out (FIFO).

Requirements: PHP 7 is required for both extension and the compatibility polyfill. 

Installation: The easiest way to install data structure by using the PECL extension.

pecl install ds

Syntax:

public Ds\Queue::functionname()

Example: Below programs illustrate the Ds\Queue::clear() function in PHP:

PHP

<?php

// Declare new Queue
$q = new \Ds\Queue();

// Add elements to the Queue
$q->push("One");
$q->push("Two");
$q->push("Three");

echo "Initial Queue: \n";
// Display the Queue
print_r($q);

// clear the Queue
$q->clear();

echo "\nQueue after clearing:\n";
print_r($q);

?>

Output:

Initial Queue: 
Ds\Queue Object
(
    [0] => One
    [1] => Two
    [2] => Three
)

Queue after clearing:
Ds\Queue Object
(
)
