If you often work with lists in Python, then you probably know that they don’t perform fast enough when you need to pop and append items on their left end. Python’s collections module provides a class called deque that’s specially designed to provide fast and memory-efficient ways to append and pop item from both ends of the underlying data structure. Python’s deque is a low-level and highly optimized double-ended queue that’s useful for implementing elegant, efficient, and Pythonic queues and […]
