22.3 Sequence containers [sequences]

22.3.8 Class template deque [deque]

22.3.8.1 Overview [deque.overview]

1
#
A deque is a sequence container that supports random access iterators ([random.access.iterators]).
In addition, it supports constant time insert and erase operations at the beginning or the end; insert and erase in the middle take linear time.
That is, a deque is especially optimized for pushing and popping elements at the beginning and end.
Storage management is handled automatically.

#
A deque meets all of the requirements of a container, of a reversible container (given in tables in [container.requirements]), of a sequence container, including the optional sequence container requirements ([sequence.reqmts]), and of an allocator-aware container (Table 76).
Descriptions are provided here only for operations on deque that are not described in one of these tables or for operations where there is additional semantic information.
