Implementation of a deque (double-ended queue). The underlying implementation uses a seq.

None of the procs that get an individual value from the deque can be used on an empty deque. If compiled with boundChecks option, those procs will raise an IndexError on such access. This should not be relied upon, as -d:release will disable those checks and may return garbage or crash the program.

As such, a check to see if the deque is empty is needed before any access, unless your program logic guarantees it indirectly.

import deques

var a = initDeque[int]()

doAssertRaises(IndexError, echo a[0])

for i in 1 .. 5:
  a.addLast(10*i)
assert $a == "[10, 20, 30, 40, 50]"

assert a.peekFirst == 10
assert a.peekLast == 50
assert len(a) == 5

assert a.popFirst == 10
assert a.popLast == 50
assert len(a) == 3

a.addFirst(11)
a.addFirst(22)
a.addFirst(33)
assert $a == "[33, 22, 11, 20, 30, 40]"

a.shrink(fromFirst = 1, fromLast = 2)
assert $a == "[22, 11, 20]"

Types

Deque[T] = object
  data: seq[T]
  head, tail, count, mask: int

A double-ended queue backed with a ringed seq buffer.

To initialize an empty deque use initDeque proc.

Procs

proc initDeque[T](initialSize: int = 4): Deque[T]

Create a new empty deque.

Optionally, the initial capacity can be reserved via initialSize as a performance optimization. The length of a newly created deque will still be 0.

initialSize must be a power of two (default: 4). If you need to accept runtime values for this you could use the nextPowerOfTwo proc from the math module.

proc len[T](deq: Deque[T]): int {...}{.inline.}
Return the number of elements of deq.   Source Edit 
proc `[]`[T](deq: Deque[T]; i: Natural): T {...}{.inline.}
Access the i-th element of deq.

proc contains[T](deq: Deque[T]; item: T): bool {...}{.inline.}
