The document discusses queues as a data structure and their implementation using circular arrays. Queues follow a first-in, first-out (FIFO) ordering, with insertion at the rear of the queue and deletion at the front. A circular array implementation is presented, which uses indices to track the front and rear of the queue, wrapping around to the beginning of the array when the indices reach the end. Sample code demonstrates creating and manipulating queues through functions like enqueue, dequeue, isEmpty and isFull. Common applications of queues include printer jobs, access to shared resources, and call center phone lines.
