|
* <p>Queues typically, but do not necessarily, order elements in a |
| 47 |
|
* FIFO (first-in-first-out) manner. Among the exceptions are |
| 48 |
|
* priority queues, which order elements according to a supplied |
| 49 |
|
* comparator, or the elements' natural ordering, and LIFO queues (or |
| 50 |
|
* stacks) which order the elements LIFO (last-in-first-out). |
| 51 |
< |
* Whatever the ordering used, the <em>head</em> of the queue is that element |
| 52 |
< |
* which would be removed by a call to {@link #remove() } or {@link #poll()}. |
| 53 |
< |
* Every Queue implementation must specify its ordering guarantees. |
| 54 |
< |
* |
| 55 |
< |
* <p>The {@link #offer(E)} method adds an element if possible, otherwise |
| 56 |
< |
* returning <tt>false</tt>. This differs from the {@link |
| 57 |
< |
* Collections#add(Object)} method, which throws an unchecked exception upon |
| 58 |
< |
* failure. It is designed for use in collections in which failure to |
| 59 |
< |
* add is a normal, rather than exceptional occurrence, for example, |
| 60 |
< |
* in fixed-capacity (or "bounded") queues. |

* <p>The {@link #remove()} and {@link #poll()} methods remove and |

| 69 |
|

| 70 |

| 71 |

* <tt>poll()</tt> methods differ only in their behavior when the |
| 72 |
