Last Updated : 17 Sep, 2018

The java.util.concurrent.ConcurrentLinkedDeque.offerFirst() method is an inbuilt method in Java which inserts the specified element, passed as a parameter, in the front of the deque.

Syntax:
Conn_Linked_Deque.offerFirst(Object elem)
Parameters:

The method accepts a parameter

elem

which species the element to be inserted to the front of the deque.

Return Value:

The function returns

True

if the element is successfully added into the deque and returns

False

otherwise.

Exception:

The function throws a

NullPointerException

if the passed parameter is

NULL

. Below programs illustrate the ConcurrentLinkedDeque.offerFirst() method:

Program 1

:

Java
/* Java Program to Demonstrate offerFirst()
   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("Elements in Deque: "
                           + cld);

        // Displaying the First element
        System.out.println("The First element is: " + 
                                       cld.getFirst());

        /* Insert an element at the front
            of the deque */
        if (cld.offerFirst("GFG")) {
            // Displaying the First element
            System.out.println("The Inserted element is: " + 
                                             cld.getFirst());
        }

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

        // Displaying the First element
        System.out.println("The First element is: " + 
                                      cld.getFirst());
    }
}
Output:
Elements in Deque: [Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
The First element is: Welcome
The Inserted element is: GFG
Elements in Deque: [GFG, Welcome, To, Geeks, 4, Geeks]
The First element is: GFG

}
Output:
Elements in Deque: [12, 43, 29, 16, 70]
The First element is: 12
java.lang.NullPointerException
The Inserted element is: 74
Elements in Deque: [74, 12, 43, 29, 16, 70]
The First element is: 74
