Q. 35 Suppose a circular queue of capacity ^n – 1h elements is implemented with an
array of n elements. Assume that the insertion and deletion operations are carried
out using REAR and FRONT as array index variables, respectively. Initially,
REAR = RFONT = 0. The conditions to detect queue full and queue empty are
(A) full: (REAR+1)mod n == FRONT
empty: REAR == FRONT
(B) full: (REAR+1)mod n == FRONT
empty: (FRONT+1) mod n == REAR
(C) full: REAR == FRONT
empty: (REAR+1) mod n == FRONT
(D) full: (FRONT+1) mod n == REAR
empty: REAR == FRONT
Answer: (A)
