Queue abstract class

A Queue is a collection that can be manipulated at both ends. One can iterate over the elements of a queue through forEach or with an Iterator.

It is generally not allowed to modify the queue (add or remove entries) while an operation on the queue is being performed, for example during a call to forEach. Modifying the queue while it is being iterated will most likely break the iteration. This goes both for using the iterator directly, or for iterating an Iterable returned by a method like map or where.

Constructors

Queue()
factory

Creates a queue.

Queue.from(Iterable elements)
factory

Creates a queue containing all elements.

Properties

first → E
read-only, inherited

Returns the first element.

hashCodeint
read-only, inherited

The hash code for this object.

isEmptybool
read-only, inherited

Returns true if there are no elements in this collection.

isNotEmptybool
read-only, inherited

Returns true if there is at least one element in this collection.

iteratorIterator<E>
read-only, inherited

Returns a new Iterator that allows iterating the elements of this Iterable.

last → E
read-only, inherited

Returns the last element.

lengthint
read-only, inherited

Returns the number of elements in the iterable.

runtimeTypeType
read-only, inherited

A representation of the runtime type of the object.

single → E
read-only, inherited

Checks that this iterable has only one element, and returns that element.

Operators

operator ==(other) → bool
inherited

The equality operator.

Methods

add(E value) → void

Adds value at the end of the queue.

addAll(Iterable<E> iterable) → void

Adds all elements of iterable at the end of the queue. The length of the queue is extended by the length of iterable.

addFirst(E value) → void

Adds value at the beginning of the queue.

addLast(E value) → void

Adds value at the end of the queue.

clear() → void

Removes all elements in the queue. The size of the queue becomes zero.

remove(Object value) → bool

Remove a single instance of value from the queue.

removeFirst() → E

Removes and returns the first element of this queue.

removeLast() → E

Removes and returns the last element of the queue.

removeWhere(bool test(E element)) → void

Removes all elements matched by test from the queue.

retainWhere(bool test(E element)) → void

Removes all elements not matched by test from the queue.

any(bool f(E element)) → bool
inherited

Checks whether any element of this iterable satisfies test.

contains(Object element) → bool
inherited

Returns true if the collection contains an element equal to element.

elementAt(int index) → E
inherited

Returns the indexth element.

every(bool f(E element)) → bool
inherited

Checks whether every element of this iterable satisfies test.

expand<T>(Iterable<T> f(E element)) → Iterable<T>
inherited

Expands each element of this Iterable into zero or more elements.

firstWhere(bool test(E element), { E orElse() }) → E
inherited

Returns the first element that satisfies the given predicate test.

fold<T>(T initialValue, T combine(T previousValue, E element)) → T
inherited

Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining each element of the collection with an existing value

forEach(void f(E element)) → void
inherited

Applies the function f to each element of this collection in iteration order.

join([String separator = "" ]) → String
inherited

Converts each element to a String and concatenates the strings.

lastWhere(bool test(E element), { E orElse() }) → E
inherited

Returns the last element that satisfies the given predicate test.

map<T>(T f(E e)) → Iterable<T>
inherited

Returns a new lazy Iterable with elements that are created by calling f on each element of this Iterable in iteration order.

noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
inherited

Invoked when a non-existent method or property is accessed.

reduce(E combine(E value, E element)) → E
inherited

Reduces a collection to a single value by iteratively combining elements of the collection using the provided function.

singleWhere(bool test(E element)) → E
inherited

Returns the single element that satisfies test.

skip(int count) → Iterable<E>
inherited

Returns an Iterable that provides all but the first count elements.

skipWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E>
inherited

Returns an Iterable that skips leading elements while test is satisfied.

take(int count) → Iterable<E>
inherited

Returns a lazy iterable of the count first elements of this iterable.

takeWhile(bool test(E value)) → Iterable<E>
inherited

Returns a lazy iterable of the leading elements satisfying test.

toList({bool growable: true }) → List<E>
inherited

Creates a List containing the elements of this Iterable.

toSet() → Set<E>
inherited

Creates a Set containing the same elements as this iterable.

toString() → String
inherited

Returns a string representation of this object.

where(bool test(E element)) → Iterable<E>
inherited

Returns a new lazy Iterable with all elements that satisfy the predicate test.
