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
elemwhich species the element to be inserted to the front of the deque.
Return Value:The function returns
Trueif the element is successfully added into the deque and returns
Falseotherwise.
Exception:The function throws a
NullPointerExceptionif 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: GFGProgram 2: 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<Integer> cld =
new ConcurrentLinkedDeque<Integer>();
// Add elements into the Deque
cld.add(12);
cld.add(43);
cld.add(29);
cld.add(16);
cld.add(70);
// Displaying the Deque
System.out.println("Elements in Deque: "
+ cld);
// Displaying the First element
System.out.println("The First element is: " +
cld.getFirst());
try {
cld.offerFirst(null);
}
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
/* Insert an element at the front
of the deque */
if (cld.offerFirst(74)) {
// 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: [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: 74Reference: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/concurrent/ConcurrentLinkedDeque.html#offerFirst()
