The pollLast() method of BlockingDeque returns the last element in the Deque container, and deletes it. It returns null if the container is empty.
Syntax:
public E pollLast()
Parameters: This method does not accept any parameters.
Returns: This method returns last element in the Deque container if the container is not empty and deletes the element also. It returns null if the container is empty.
Note: The pollLast() method of BlockingDeque has been inherited from the LinkedBlockingDeque class in Java.
Below programs illustrate pollLast() method of BlockingDeque:
Program 1:
// Java Program Demonstrate pollLast()// method of BlockingDeque import java.util.concurrent.LinkedBlockingDeque;import java.util.concurrent.BlockingDeque;import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create object of BlockingDeque BlockingDeque<Integer> BD = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>(); // Add numbers to end of BlockingDeque BD.addFirst(7855642); BD.addFirst(35658786); BD.addFirst(5278367); BD.addFirst(74381793); // Print the queue System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD); // prints and deletes the last element System.out.println("Front element in Deque: " + BD.pollLast()); // prints the Deque after deletion of last element System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD); }} |
Output:
Blocking Deque: [74381793, 5278367, 35658786, 7855642] Front element in Deque: 7855642 Blocking Deque: [74381793, 5278367, 35658786]
Program 2:
// Java Program Demonstrate pollLast()// method of BlockingDeque// when Deque is empty import java.util.concurrent.LinkedBlockingDeque;import java.util.concurrent.BlockingDeque;import java.util.*; public class GFG { public static void main(String[] args) { // create object of BlockingDeque BlockingDeque<Integer> BD = new LinkedBlockingDeque<Integer>(); // Add numbers to end of BlockingDeque BD.add(7855642); BD.add(35658786); BD.add(5278367); BD.add(74381793); // Print the queue System.out.println("Blocking Deque: " + BD); // empty deque BD.clear(); System.out.println("Front element in Deque: " + BD.pollLast()); }} |
Output:
Blocking Deque: [7855642, 35658786, 5278367, 74381793] Front element in Deque: null
