Example 1

import java.util.ArrayDeque;
import java.util.Deque;
public class JavaDequeelementExample1 {
     public static void main(String[] args) {
    	 Deque<String> deque = new ArrayDeque<>();
			deque.add("FAT");
			deque.add("CAO");
			deque.add("JAVA");
			deque.add("DBMS");
			System.out.println("The final queue is : "+deque);

	   	System.out.println("The required answer : "+val);    		 
	}
}

Output:

The final queue is : [FAT, CAO, JAVA, DBMS]
The required answer : FAT

Example 2

import java.util.ArrayDeque;
import java.util.Deque;
public class JavaDequeelementExample2 {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
		Deque<Character> deque = new ArrayDeque<>();
		System.out.println("The list of the elements is given as : ");
		deque.add('k');
		deque.add('p');
		deque.add('m');
		deque.add('t');
		System.out.println(deque);
		Character val = deque.element();
	   	System.out.println("The required answer : "+val);    
	}
}

Test it Now

Output:

The list of the elements is given as : 
[k, p, m, t]
The required answer : k

Example 3

import java.util.ArrayDeque;
import java.util.Deque;
public class JavaDequeelementExample3 {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
		Deque<Integer> deque = new ArrayDeque<>();
		System.out.print("The list of the elements is given as : ");
		deque.add(2);
		deque.add(3);
		deque.add(4);
		deque.add(5);
		System.out.println(deque);
		Integer val = deque.element();
	   	System.out.println("The required answer : "+val);
