Queue/Usage
Perl 6 maintains the same list operators of Perl, for this task, the operations are:
push (aka enqueue) -- @list.push
pop (aka dequeue) -- @list.shift
empty -- [email protected]
but there's also @list.pop
which removes a item from the end,
and @list.unshift
which add a item on the start of the list.
Example:
my @queue = < a >;
@queue.push('b', 'c'); # [ a, b, c ]
say @queue.shift; # a
say @queue.pop; # c
say @queue.perl; # [ b ]
say @queue.elems; # 1
@queue.unshift('A'); # [ A, b ]
@queue.push('C'); # [ A, b, C ]
