Python Language Tutorial => Available methods in deque

Example

Creating empty deque:

dl = deque()  # deque([]) creating empty deque

Creating deque with some elements:

dl = deque([1, 2, 3, 4])  # deque([1, 2, 3, 4])

Adding element to deque:

dl.append(5)  # deque([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

Adding element left side of deque:

dl.appendleft(0)  # deque([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

Adding list of elements to deque:

dl.extend([6, 7])  # deque([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7])

Adding list of elements to from the left side:

dl.extendleft([-2, -1])  # deque([-1, -2, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7])

Using .pop() element will naturally remove an item from the right side:

dl.pop()  # 7 => deque([-1, -2, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])

Using .popleft() element to remove an item from the left side:

dl.popleft()  # -1 deque([-2, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])

Remove element by its value:

dl.remove(1)  # deque([-2, 0, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6])

Reverse the order of the elements in deque:

dl.reverse()  # deque([6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 0, -2])
