# --description--
|
|
|
|
In Computer Science a <dfn>queue</dfn> is an abstract <dfn>Data Structure</dfn> where items are kept in order. New items can be added at the back of the queue and old items are taken off from the front of the queue.
|
|
|
|
Write a function `nextInLine` which takes an array (`arr`) and a number (`item`) as arguments.
|
|
|
|
Add the number to the end of the array, then remove the first element of the array.
|
|
|
|
The `nextInLine` function should then return the element that was removed.
|
|
|
|
# --hints--
|
|
|
|
`nextInLine([], 5)` should return a number.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.isNumber(nextInLine([], 5));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`nextInLine([], 1)` should return `1`
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(nextInLine([], 1) === 1);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`nextInLine([2], 1)` should return `2`
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(nextInLine([2], 1) === 2);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`nextInLine([5,6,7,8,9], 1)` should return `5`
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(nextInLine([5, 6, 7, 8, 9], 1) === 5);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After `nextInLine(testArr, 10)`, `testArr[4]` should be `10`
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
nextInLine(testArr, 10);
|
|
assert(testArr[4] === 10);
|
|
```
