FIFO (First-In-First-Out) approach in Programming

FIFO (First-In-First-Out) approach in Programming

Last Updated : 06 Dec, 2022

FIFO is an abbreviation for first in, first out. It is a method for handling data structures where the first element is processed first and the newest element is processed last.

Real-life example:
 

In this example, following things are to be considered: 

This is known as First-In-First-Out approach or FIFO.

Where is FIFO used:

  1. Data Structures:
  2. Disk scheduling:
  3. Communications and networking"

Program Examples for FIFO

Program 1: Queue 

C++
// C++ program to demonstrate 
// working of FIFO 
// using Queue interface in C++

#include<bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// print the elements of queue
void print_queue(queue<int> q)
{
    while (!q.empty())
    {
        cout << q.front() << " ";
        q.pop();
    }
    cout << endl;
}

// Driver code
int main() 
{ 
    queue<int> q ;

    // Adds elements {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} to queue 
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) 
        q.push(i); 

    // Display contents of the queue. 
    cout << "Elements of queue-";
        
    print_queue(q);

    // To remove the head of queue. 
    // In this the oldest element '0' will be removed 
    int removedele = q.front();
    q.pop();
    cout << "removed element-" << removedele << endl; 

    print_queue(q);

    // To view the head of queue 
    int head = q.front(); 
    cout << "head of queue-" << head << endl; 

    // Rest all methods of collection interface, 
    // Like size and contains can be used with this 
    // implementation. 
    int size = q.size(); 
    cout << "Size of queue-" << size;
        
    return 0;
}
