The Java Queue remove() method removes first element of the list. Shifts any subsequent elements to the left (subtracts one from their indices).
DeclarationFollowing is the declaration for java.util.Queue.remove() method
public E remove(int index)Parameters
NA
Return ValueThis method returns the first element.
ExceptionNoSuchElementException − if list is empty.
Example 1The following example shows the usage of Java Queue remove() method. We're creating a Queue of Integers. We're adding couple of Integers to the Queue object using add() method calls per element. Queue size is printed, queue is printed and using remove() method, first element is removed. Then size and queue is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; import java.util.Queue; public class QueueDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty queue Queue<Integer> queue = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the queue queue.add(20); queue.add(15); queue.add(30); queue.add(45); System.out.println("Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); // Removes first element queue.remove(); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 4 Queue = [20, 15, 30, 45] Now, Size of list: 3 Queue = [15, 30, 45]Example 2
The following example shows the usage of Java Queue remove(object) method. We're creating a Queue of String. We're adding couple of Strings to the Queue object using add() method calls per element. Queue size is printed, queue is printed and using remove(object) method, an element is removed. Then size and queue is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; import java.util.Queue; public class QueueDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty queue Queue<String> queue = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the queue queue.add("A"); queue.add("B"); queue.add("C"); queue.add("D"); System.out.println("Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); // Removes element B queue.remove("B"); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 4 Queue = [A, B, C, D] Now, Size of list: 3 Queue = [A, C, D]Example 3
The following example shows the usage of Java Queue remove(index) method. We're creating a Queue of Student objects. We're adding couple of Students to the Queue object using add() method calls per element. Queue size is printed, queue is printed and using remove(index) method, an element is removed. Then size and queue is printed again.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.LinkedList; import java.util.Queue; public class QueueDemo { public static void main(String[] args) { // create an empty queue Queue<Student> queue = new LinkedList<>(); // use add() method to add elements in the queue queue.add(new Student(1, "Julie")); queue.add(new Student(2, "Robert")); queue.add(new Student(3, "Adam")); System.out.println("Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); // Removes element at 3rd position queue.remove(2); System.out.println("Now, Size of list: " + queue.size()); // let us print all the elements available in list again System.out.println("Queue = " + queue); } } class Student { int rollNo; String name; Student(int rollNo, String name){ this.rollNo = rollNo; this.name = name; } @Override public String toString() { return "[ " + this.rollNo + ", " + this.name + " ]"; } @Override public boolean equals(Object obj) { Student s = (Student)obj; return this.rollNo == s.rollNo && this.name.equalsIgnoreCase(s.name); } }Output
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
Size of list: 3 Queue = [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ], [ 3, Adam ]] Now, Size of list: 2 Queue = [[ 1, Julie ], [ 2, Robert ]]
