  * 1. Operations at Both Ends: Supports adding and removing elements at both the front and back of the queue. This allows it to be used as a stack (last in, first out) and a queue (first in, first out).
  * 2. Efficient Random Access: Being based on an array, it offers fast random access capability, allowing constant time access to any element.
  * 3. Continuous Memory Allocation: Since it is based on an array, all elements are stored contiguously in memory, which can bring cache friendliness and efficient memory access.
