Difference between “enqueue” and “dequeue”

Question

Can somebody please explain the main differences? I don\'t have a clear knowledge about these functions in programming for any language.

Answer 1

In my opinion one of the worst chosen word's to describe the process, as it is not related to anything in real-life or similar. In general the word "queue" is very bad as if pronounced, it sounds like the English character "q". See the inefficiency here?

enqueue: to place something into a queue; to add an element to the tail of a queue;

dequeue to take something out of a queue; to remove the first available element from the head of a queue
