std::deque (double-ended queue) is an indexed sequence container that allows fast insertion and deletion at both its beginning and its end. In addition, insertion and deletion at either end of a deque never invalidates pointers or references to the rest of the elements.

As opposed to std::vector, the elements of a deque are not stored contiguously: typical implementations use a sequence of individually allocated fixed-size arrays.

The storage of a deque is automatically expanded and contracted as needed. Expansion of a deque is cheaper than the expansion of a std::vector because it does not involve copying of the existing elements to a new memory location.

The complexity (efficiency) of common operations on deques is as follows:

  • Random access - constant O(1)
  • Insertion or removal of elements at the end or beginning - constant O(1)
  • Insertion or removal of elements - linear O(n)

std::deque meets the requirements of Template:concept, Template:concept, Template:concept and Template:concept.

Contents

Template parameters

T - The type of the elements.
T must meet the requirements of CopyAssignable and CopyConstructible. (until C++11)
The requirements that are imposed on the elements depend on the actual operations performed on the container. Generally, it is required that element type is a complete type and meets the requirements of Erasable, but many member functions impose stricter requirements. (since C++11)

[edit]

Allocator - An allocator that is used to acquire/release memory and to construct/destroy the elements in that memory. The type must meet the requirements of Allocator. The behavior is undefined(until C++20)The program is ill-formed(since C++20) if Allocator::value_type is not the same as T.[edit]

Iterator invalidation

There are still a few inaccuracies in this section, refer to individual member function pages for more detail

Operations Invalidated
All read only operations, swap, std::swap Never
shrink_to_fit, clear, insert, emplace, push_back, emplace_back Always
erase If erasing at beginning or end - only erased elements.

Otherwise - all iterators are invalidated.

resize Only if the new size is bigger than the old one.
pop_back, pop_front Only to the element erased
