ArrayDeque Class push() method

• push() Method is available in java.lang package.
• push() Method is used to push an element onto the stack denoted by this deque.
• push() Method is a non-static method, it is accessible with the class object only and if we try to access the method with the class name then we will get an error.
• push() Method may throw an exception at the time of pushing an element onto the stack.NullPointerException: This exception may throw when the given element is null exists.

Syntax:

    public void push(T element);

Parameter(s):

• T element – represents the element to be pushed onto the stack successfully.

Return value:

The return type of the method is void, it returns nothing.

Example:

// Java program to demonstrate the example 
// of void push(T element) method of ArrayDeque 

import java.util.*;

public class PushOfArrayDeque {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Creating an ArrayDeque with initial capacity of
        // storing elements
        Deque < String > d_queue = new ArrayDeque < String > (10);

        // By using add() method to add elements
        // in ArrayDeque
        d_queue.add("C");
        d_queue.add("C++");
        d_queue.add("Java");
        d_queue.add("Php");
        d_queue.add("DotNet");

        // Display Deque Elements
        System.out.println("d_queue before push(): ");
        System.out.println("ArrayDeque Elements = " + d_queue);

        System.out.println();

        // By using push() method to push the
        // elements at the front of ArrayDeque
        d_queue.push("Python");

        System.out.println();

        // Display Deque Elements
        System.out.println("d_queue after push(): ");
        System.out.println("ArrayDeque Elements = " + d_queue);
    }
}

Output

d_queue before push(): 
ArrayDeque Elements = [C, C++, Java, Php, DotNet]


d_queue after push(): 
ArrayDeque Elements = [Python, C, C++, Java, Php, DotNet]
