The function returns

True

if the element is successfully added into the deque and returns

NullPointerException

if the passed parameter is

Java


 // Java Program to Demonstrate offer()
// method of ConcurrentLinkedDeque

import java.util.concurrent.*;

class GFG {
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {

        // Creating an empty Deque
        ConcurrentLinkedDeque<String> cld
            = new ConcurrentLinkedDeque<String>();

        // Add elements into the Deque
        cld.add("Welcome");
        cld.add("To");
        cld.add("Geeks");
        cld.add("4");
        cld.add("Geeks");

        // Displaying the Deque
        System.out.println("ConcurrentLinkedDeque: "
                           + cld);

        // Insert an element using offer()
        if (cld.offer("GFG")) {

            // Displaying message
            System.out.println("Element Inserted");
        }
        else {

            // Displaying message
            System.out.println("Element not Inserted");
        }

        // Displaying the Deque
        System.out.println("ConcurrentLinkedDeque: "
                           + cld);
    }
}

Output:

ConcurrentLinkedDeque: [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
Element Inserted
ConcurrentLinkedDeque: [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks, GFG]

Output:

ConcurrentLinkedDeque: [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
