Peeking a Queue means getting the value at the head of the Queue. So we can implement the peek function as follows −
EXample
peek() {
if (isEmpty()) {
console.log("Queue Underflow!");
return;
}
return this.container[0];
}You can check if this function is working fine using −
Example
let q = new Queue(2); q.enqueue(3); q.enqueue(4); console.log(q.peek()); q.display();
Output
This will give the output −
3 [ 3, 4 ]
As you can see here, peek() differs from dequeue in that it just returns the front value without removing it.
