Struct std::collections::VecDeque

pub struct VecDeque<T, A = Global> where
    A: Allocator,  { /* fields omitted */ }

A double-ended queue implemented with a growable ring buffer.

The “default” usage of this type as a queue is to use push_back to add to the queue, and pop_front to remove from the queue. extend and append push onto the back in this manner, and iterating over VecDeque goes front to back.

A VecDeque with a known list of items can be initialized from an array:

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let deq = VecDeque::from([-1, 0, 1]);

Since VecDeque is a ring buffer, its elements are not necessarily contiguous in memory. If you want to access the elements as a single slice, such as for efficient sorting, you can use make_contiguous. It rotates the VecDeque so that its elements do not wrap, and returns a mutable slice to the now-contiguous element sequence.

Implementations

impl<T> VecDeque<T, Global>

pub fn new() -> VecDeque<T, Global>

Creates an empty VecDeque.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let vector: VecDeque<u32> = VecDeque::new();

pub fn with_capacity(capacity: usize) -> VecDeque<T, Global>

Creates an empty VecDeque with space for at least capacity elements.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let vector: VecDeque<u32> = VecDeque::with_capacity(10);

impl<T, A> VecDeque<T, A> where
    A: Allocator, 

pub fn new_in(alloc: A) -> VecDeque<T, A>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (allocator_api #32838)

Creates an empty VecDeque.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let vector: VecDeque<u32> = VecDeque::new();

pub fn with_capacity_in(capacity: usize, alloc: A) -> VecDeque<T, A>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (allocator_api #32838)

Creates an empty VecDeque with space for at least capacity elements.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let vector: VecDeque<u32> = VecDeque::with_capacity(10);

pub fn get(&self, index: usize) -> Option<&T>

Provides a reference to the element at the given index.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(3);
buf.push_back(4);
buf.push_back(5);
assert_eq!(buf.get(1), Some(&4));

pub fn get_mut(&mut self, index: usize) -> Option<&mut T>

Provides a mutable reference to the element at the given index.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(3);
buf.push_back(4);
buf.push_back(5);
if let Some(elem) = buf.get_mut(1) {
    *elem = 7;
}

assert_eq!(buf[1], 7);

pub fn swap(&mut self, i: usize, j: usize)

Swaps elements at indices i and j.

i and j may be equal.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Panics

Panics if either index is out of bounds.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(3);
buf.push_back(4);
buf.push_back(5);
assert_eq!(buf, [3, 4, 5]);
buf.swap(0, 2);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 4, 3]);

pub fn capacity(&self) -> usize

Returns the number of elements the VecDeque can hold without reallocating.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let buf: VecDeque<i32> = VecDeque::with_capacity(10);
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 10);

pub fn reserve_exact(&mut self, additional: usize)

Reserves the minimum capacity for exactly additional more elements to be inserted in the given VecDeque. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer reserve if future insertions are expected.

Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows usize.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<i32> = vec![1].into_iter().collect();
buf.reserve_exact(10);
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 11);

pub fn reserve(&mut self, additional: usize)

Reserves capacity for at least additional more elements to be inserted in the given VecDeque. The collection may reserve more space to avoid frequent reallocations.

Panics

Panics if the new capacity overflows usize.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<i32> = vec![1].into_iter().collect();
buf.reserve(10);
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 11);

pub fn try_reserve_exact(
    &mut self,
    additional: usize
) -> Result<(), TryReserveError>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (try_reserve #48043)

new API

Tries to reserve the minimum capacity for exactly additional more elements to be inserted in the given VecDeque<T>. After calling try_reserve_exact, capacity will be greater than or equal to self.len() + additional. Does nothing if the capacity is already sufficient.

Note that the allocator may give the collection more space than it requests. Therefore, capacity can not be relied upon to be precisely minimal. Prefer reserve if future insertions are expected.

Errors

If the capacity overflows usize, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

Examples

#![feature(try_reserve)]
use std::collections::TryReserveError;
use std::collections::VecDeque;

fn process_data(data: &[u32]) -> Result<VecDeque<u32>, TryReserveError> {
    let mut output = VecDeque::new();

    // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
    output.try_reserve_exact(data.len())?;

    // Now we know this can't OOM(Out-Of-Memory) in the middle of our complex work
    output.extend(data.iter().map(|&val| {
        val * 2 + 5 // very complicated
    }));

    Ok(output)
}

pub fn try_reserve(&mut self, additional: usize) -> Result<(), TryReserveError>

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (try_reserve #48043)

new API

Tries to reserve capacity for at least additional more elements to be inserted in the given VecDeque<T>. The collection may reserve more space to avoid frequent reallocations. After calling try_reserve, capacity will be greater than or equal to self.len() + additional. Does nothing if capacity is already sufficient.

Errors

If the capacity overflows usize, or the allocator reports a failure, then an error is returned.

Examples

#![feature(try_reserve)]
use std::collections::TryReserveError;
use std::collections::VecDeque;

fn process_data(data: &[u32]) -> Result<VecDeque<u32>, TryReserveError> {
    let mut output = VecDeque::new();

    // Pre-reserve the memory, exiting if we can't
    output.try_reserve(data.len())?;

    // Now we know this can't OOM in the middle of our complex work
    output.extend(data.iter().map(|&val| {
        val * 2 + 5 // very complicated
    }));

    Ok(output)
}

pub fn shrink_to_fit(&mut self)

Shrinks the capacity of the VecDeque as much as possible.

It will drop down as close as possible to the length but the allocator may still inform the VecDeque that there is space for a few more elements.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::with_capacity(15);
buf.extend(0..4);
assert_eq!(buf.capacity(), 15);
buf.shrink_to_fit();
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 4);

pub fn shrink_to(&mut self, min_capacity: usize)

Shrinks the capacity of the VecDeque with a lower bound.

The capacity will remain at least as large as both the length and the supplied value.

If the current capacity is less than the lower limit, this is a no-op.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::with_capacity(15);
buf.extend(0..4);
assert_eq!(buf.capacity(), 15);
buf.shrink_to(6);
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 6);
buf.shrink_to(0);
assert!(buf.capacity() >= 4);

pub fn truncate(&mut self, len: usize)

Shortens the VecDeque, keeping the first len elements and dropping the rest.

If len is greater than the VecDeque’s current length, this has no effect.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(5);
buf.push_back(10);
buf.push_back(15);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 15]);
buf.truncate(1);
assert_eq!(buf, [5]);

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(5);
buf.push_back(3);
buf.push_back(4);
let b: &[_] = &[&5, &3, &4];
let c: Vec<&i32> = buf.iter().collect();
assert_eq!(&c[..], b);

pub fn iter_mut(&mut self) -> IterMut<'_, T>

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(5);
buf.push_back(3);
buf.push_back(4);
for num in buf.iter_mut() {
    *num = *num - 2;
}
let b: &[_] = &[&mut 3, &mut 1, &mut 2];
assert_eq!(&buf.iter_mut().collect::<Vec<&mut i32>>()[..], b);

pub fn as_slices(&self) -> (&[T], &[T])

Returns a pair of slices which contain, in order, the contents of the VecDeque.

If make_contiguous was previously called, all elements of the VecDeque will be in the first slice and the second slice will be empty.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut vector = VecDeque::new();

vector.push_back(0);
vector.push_back(1);
vector.push_back(2);

assert_eq!(vector.as_slices(), (&[0, 1, 2][..], &[][..]));

vector.push_front(10);
vector.push_front(9);

assert_eq!(vector.as_slices(), (&[9, 10][..], &[0, 1, 2][..]));

pub fn as_mut_slices(&mut self) -> (&mut [T], &mut [T])

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut vector = VecDeque::new();

vector.push_back(0);
vector.push_back(1);

vector.push_front(10);
vector.push_front(9);

vector.as_mut_slices().0[0] = 42;
vector.as_mut_slices().1[0] = 24;
assert_eq!(vector.as_slices(), (&[42, 10][..], &[24, 1][..]));

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Returns the number of elements in the VecDeque.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut v = VecDeque::new();
assert_eq!(v.len(), 0);
v.push_back(1);
assert_eq!(v.len(), 1);

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the VecDeque is empty.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut v = VecDeque::new();
assert!(v.is_empty());
v.push_front(1);
assert!(!v.is_empty());

pub fn range<R>(&self, range: R) -> Iter<'_, T> where
    R: RangeBounds<usize>, 

Creates an iterator that covers the specified range in the VecDeque.

Panics if the starting point is greater than the end point or if the end point is greater than the length of the vector.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let v: VecDeque<_> = vec![1, 2, 3].into_iter().collect();
let range = v.range(2..).copied().collect::<VecDeque<_>>();
assert_eq!(range, [3]);

for v in v.range_mut(2..) {
  *v *= 2;
}
assert_eq!(v, vec![1, 2, 6]);

// A full range covers all contents
for v in v.range_mut(..) {
  *v *= 2;
}
assert_eq!(v, vec![2, 4, 12]);

pub fn drain<R>(&mut self, range: R) -> Drain<'_, T, A> where
    R: RangeBounds<usize>, 

Creates a draining iterator that removes the specified range in the VecDeque and yields the removed items.

Note 1: The element range is removed even if the iterator is not consumed until the end.

Note 2: It is unspecified how many elements are removed from the deque, if the Drain value is not dropped, but the borrow it holds expires (e.g., due to mem::forget).

Panics

Panics if the starting point is greater than the end point or if the end point is greater than the length of the vector.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut v: VecDeque<_> = vec![1, 2, 3].into_iter().collect();

let mut d = VecDeque::new();
assert_eq!(d.front(), None);

d.push_back(1);
d.push_back(2);
assert_eq!(d.front(), Some(&1));

pub fn front_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut T>

    None => (),
}
assert_eq!(d.back(), Some(&9));

pub fn pop_front(&mut self) -> Option<T>

Removes an element from anywhere in the VecDeque and returns it, replacing it with the first element.

This does not preserve ordering, but is O(1).

Returns None if index is out of bounds.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
assert_eq!(buf.swap_remove_back(0), None);

assert_eq!(buf, [3, 2]);

pub fn insert(&mut self, index: usize, value: T)

Inserts an element at index within the VecDeque, shifting all elements with indices greater than or equal to index towards the back.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Panics

Panics if index is greater than VecDeque’s length

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut vec_deque = VecDeque::new();
vec_deque.push_back('a');

assert_eq!(vec_deque, &['a', 'd', 'b', 'c']);

pub fn remove(&mut self, index: usize) -> Option<T>

Removes and returns the element at index from the VecDeque. Whichever end is closer to the removal point will be moved to make room, and all the affected elements will be moved to new positions. Returns None if index is out of bounds.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(1);
buf.push_back(2);
buf.push_back(3);
assert_eq!(buf, [1, 2, 3]);

assert_eq!(buf.remove(1), Some(2));
assert_eq!(buf, [1, 3]);

pub fn split_off(&mut self, at: usize) -> VecDeque<T, A> where
    A: Clone, 

Splits the VecDeque into two at the given index.

Returns a newly allocated VecDeque. self contains elements [0, at), and the returned VecDeque contains elements [at, len).

Note that the capacity of self does not change.

Element at index 0 is the front of the queue.

Panics

Panics if at > len.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<_> = vec![1, 2, 3].into_iter().collect();
let buf2 = buf.split_off(1);
assert_eq!(buf, [1]);
assert_eq!(buf2, [2, 3]);

pub fn append(&mut self, other: &mut VecDeque<T, A>)

Moves all the elements of other into self, leaving other empty.

Panics

Panics if the new number of elements in self overflows a usize.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<_> = vec![1, 2].into_iter().collect();
let mut buf2: VecDeque<_> = vec![3, 4].into_iter().collect();
buf.append(&mut buf2);
assert_eq!(buf, [1, 2, 3, 4]);
assert_eq!(buf2, []);

pub fn retain<F>(&mut self, f: F) where
    F: FnMut(&T) -> bool, 

Retains only the elements specified by the predicate.

In other words, remove all elements e such that f(&e) returns false. This method operates in place, visiting each element exactly once in the original order, and preserves the order of the retained elements.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.extend(1..5);
buf.retain(|&x| x % 2 == 0);
assert_eq!(buf, [2, 4]);

Because the elements are visited exactly once in the original order, external state may be used to decide which elements to keep.

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.extend(1..6);

let keep = [false, true, true, false, true];
let mut iter = keep.iter();
buf.retain(|_| *iter.next().unwrap());
assert_eq!(buf, [2, 3, 5]);

pub fn resize_with(&mut self, new_len: usize, generator: impl FnMut() -> T)

Modifies the VecDeque in-place so that len() is equal to new_len, either by removing excess elements from the back or by appending elements generated by calling generator to the back.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(5);
buf.push_back(10);
buf.push_back(15);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 15]);

buf.resize_with(5, Default::default);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 15, 0, 0]);

buf.resize_with(2, || unreachable!());
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10]);

let mut state = 100;
buf.resize_with(5, || { state += 1; state });
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 101, 102, 103]);

pub fn make_contiguous(&mut self) -> &mut [T]

Rearranges the internal storage of this deque so it is one contiguous slice, which is then returned.

This method does not allocate and does not change the order of the inserted elements. As it returns a mutable slice, this can be used to sort a deque.

Once the internal storage is contiguous, the as_slices and as_mut_slices methods will return the entire contents of the VecDeque in a single slice.

Examples

Sorting the content of a deque.

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::with_capacity(15);

buf.push_back(2);
buf.push_back(1);
buf.push_front(3);

// sorting the deque
buf.make_contiguous().sort();
assert_eq!(buf.as_slices(), (&[1, 2, 3] as &[_], &[] as &[_]));

// sorting it in reverse order
buf.make_contiguous().sort_by(|a, b| b.cmp(a));
assert_eq!(buf.as_slices(), (&[3, 2, 1] as &[_], &[] as &[_]));

Getting immutable access to the contiguous slice.

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();

buf.push_back(2);
buf.push_back(1);
buf.push_front(3);

buf.make_contiguous();
if let (slice, &[]) = buf.as_slices() {
    // we can now be sure that `slice` contains all elements of the deque,
    // while still having immutable access to `buf`.
    assert_eq!(buf.len(), slice.len());
    assert_eq!(slice, &[3, 2, 1] as &[_]);
}

pub fn rotate_left(&mut self, mid: usize)

Rotates the double-ended queue mid places to the left.

Equivalently,

• Rotates item mid into the first position.
• Pops the first mid items and pushes them to the end.
• Rotates len() - mid places to the right.

Panics

If mid is greater than len(). Note that mid == len() does not panic and is a no-op rotation.

Complexity

Takes *O*(min(mid, len() - mid)) time and no extra space.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<_> = (0..10).collect();

buf.rotate_left(3);
assert_eq!(buf, [3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2]);

for i in 1..10 {
    assert_eq!(i * 3 % 10, buf[0]);
    buf.rotate_left(3);
}
assert_eq!(buf, [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]);

pub fn rotate_right(&mut self, k: usize)

Rotates the double-ended queue k places to the right.

Equivalently,

• Rotates the first item into position k.
• Pops the last k items and pushes them to the front.
• Rotates len() - k places to the left.

Panics

If k is greater than len(). Note that k == len() does not panic and is a no-op rotation.

Complexity

Takes *O*(min(k, len() - k)) time and no extra space.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf: VecDeque<_> = (0..10).collect();

buf.rotate_right(3);
assert_eq!(buf, [7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]);

for i in 1..10 {
    assert_eq!(0, buf[i * 3 % 10]);
    buf.rotate_right(3);
}
assert_eq!(buf, [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]);

pub fn binary_search(&self, x: &T) -> Result<usize, usize> where
    T: Ord, 

Binary searches this sorted VecDeque for a given element.

If the value is found then Result::Ok is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then Result::Err is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

See also binary_search_by, binary_search_by_key, and partition_point.

Examples

Looks up a series of four elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in [1, 4].

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let deque: VecDeque<_> = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55].into();

assert_eq!(deque.binary_search(&13),  Ok(9));
assert_eq!(deque.binary_search(&4),   Err(7));

let r = deque.binary_search(&1);
assert!(matches!(r, Ok(1..=4)));

If you want to insert an item to a sorted VecDeque, while maintaining sort order:

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut deque: VecDeque<_> = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55].into();
let num = 42;
let idx = deque.binary_search(&num).unwrap_or_else(|x| x);
deque.insert(idx, num);
assert_eq!(deque, &[0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 42, 55]);

pub fn binary_search_by<'a, F>(&'a self, f: F) -> Result<usize, usize> where
    F: FnMut(&'a T) -> Ordering, 

Binary searches this sorted VecDeque with a comparator function.

The comparator function should implement an order consistent with the sort order of the underlying VecDeque, returning an order code that indicates whether its argument is Less, Equal or Greater than the desired target.

If the value is found then Result::Ok is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then Result::Err is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

See also binary_search, binary_search_by_key, and partition_point.

Examples

Looks up a series of four elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in [1, 4].

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let deque: VecDeque<_> = vec![0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55].into();

assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by(|x| x.cmp(&13)),  Ok(9));
assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by(|x| x.cmp(&4)),   Err(7));
assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by(|x| x.cmp(&100)), Err(13));
let r = deque.binary_search_by(|x| x.cmp(&1));
assert!(matches!(r, Ok(1..=4)));

pub fn binary_search_by_key<'a, B, F>(
    &'a self,
    b: &B,
    f: F
) -> Result<usize, usize> where
    F: FnMut(&'a T) -> B,
    B: Ord, 

Binary searches this sorted VecDeque with a key extraction function.

Assumes that the VecDeque is sorted by the key, for instance with make_contiguous().sort_by_key() using the same key extraction function.

If the value is found then Result::Ok is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then Result::Err is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

See also binary_search, binary_search_by, and partition_point.

Examples

Looks up a series of four elements in a slice of pairs sorted by their second elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in [1, 4].

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let deque: VecDeque<_> = vec![(0, 0), (2, 1), (4, 1), (5, 1),
         (3, 1), (1, 2), (2, 3), (4, 5), (5, 8), (3, 13),
         (1, 21), (2, 34), (4, 55)].into();

assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by_key(&13, |&(a, b)| b),  Ok(9));
assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by_key(&4, |&(a, b)| b),   Err(7));
assert_eq!(deque.binary_search_by_key(&100, |&(a, b)| b), Err(13));
let r = deque.binary_search_by_key(&1, |&(a, b)| b);
assert!(matches!(r, Ok(1..=4)));

pub fn partition_point<P>(&self, pred: P) -> usize where
    P: FnMut(&T) -> bool, 

Returns the index of the partition point according to the given predicate (the index of the first element of the second partition).

The deque is assumed to be partitioned according to the given predicate. This means that all elements for which the predicate returns true are at the start of the deque and all elements for which the predicate returns false are at the end. For example, [7, 15, 3, 5, 4, 12, 6] is a partitioned under the predicate x % 2 != 0 (all odd numbers are at the start, all even at the end).

If this deque is not partitioned, the returned result is unspecified and meaningless, as this method performs a kind of binary search.

See also binary_search, binary_search_by, and binary_search_by_key.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let deque: VecDeque<_> = vec![1, 2, 3, 3, 5, 6, 7].into();
let i = deque.partition_point(|&x| x < 5);

assert_eq!(i, 4);
assert!(deque.iter().take(i).all(|&x| x < 5));
assert!(deque.iter().skip(i).all(|&x| !(x < 5)));

impl<T, A> VecDeque<T, A> where
    T: Clone,
    A: Allocator, 

pub fn resize(&mut self, new_len: usize, value: T)

Modifies the VecDeque in-place so that len() is equal to new_len, either by removing excess elements from the back or by appending clones of value to the back.

Examples

use std::collections::VecDeque;

let mut buf = VecDeque::new();
buf.push_back(5);
buf.push_back(10);
buf.push_back(15);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 15]);

buf.resize(2, 0);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10]);

buf.resize(5, 20);
assert_eq!(buf, [5, 10, 20, 20, 20]);

pub fn from(arr: [T; N]) -> VecDeque<T, Global>

use std::collections::VecDeque;

    A: Allocator, 

pub fn from(other: Vec<T, A>) -> VecDeque<T, A>

Turn a Vec<T> into a VecDeque<T>.

This avoids reallocating where possible, but the conditions for that are strict, and subject to change, and so shouldn’t be relied upon unless the Vec<T> came from From<VecDeque<T>> and hasn’t been reallocated.

    A: Allocator, 

pub fn from(other: VecDeque<T, A>) -> Vec<T, A>

This never needs to re-allocate, but does need to do O(n) data movement if the circular buffer doesn’t happen to be at the beginning of the allocation.
