Adapted from Cambridge International AS & A Level Computer Science (9618), May/June 2024 Paper 41, Question 3.
A linear queue stores up to 20 strings in QueueData. QueueHead and QueueTail both start at -1.
Write:
- function
Enqueue(DataToInsert)to insert data if the queue is not full and returnTRUE; returnFALSEif the queue is full - function
Dequeue()to return"false"if the queue is empty, otherwise return the next item and update the head pointer
The test harness reads a number of operations. Operation E is followed by a value and must output the result of Enqueue(). Operation D must output the result of Dequeue().
Input: Operation count, then operations. Output: One line per operation result.
Example:
Input: 5

Output: TRUE
