Queues
A queue is a data structure that follows the First-In-First-Out (FIFO) principle.
"I need to process tasks in the order they arrive, just like a line at the coffee shop."
A queue is a collection that allows adding items at the back and removing them from the front, ensuring the first item added is the first one removed.
