E - the type of elements held in this collectionpublic class LinkedBlockingDeque<E> extends AbstractQueue<E> implements BlockingDeque<E>, Serializable
The optional capacity bound constructor argument serves as a
 way to prevent excessive expansion. The capacity, if unspecified,
 is equal to Integer.MAX_VALUE.  Linked nodes are
 dynamically created upon each insertion unless this would bring the
 deque above capacity.
 
Most operations run in constant time (ignoring time spent
 blocking).  Exceptions include remove,
 removeFirstOccurrence, removeLastOccurrence, contains, iterator.remove(), and the bulk
 operations, all of which run in linear time.
 
This class and its iterator implement all of the
 optional methods of the Collection and Iterator interfaces.
 
This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

 Note that you cannot always tell if an attempt to insert
 an element will succeed by inspecting remainingCapacity
 because it may be the case that another thread is about to
 insert or remove an element.

The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are maintained by this deque. (In other words, this method must allocate a new array). The caller is thus free to modify the returned array.
This method acts as bridge between array-based and collection-based APIs.
toArray in interface Collection<E>toArray in class AbstractCollection<E>public <T> T[] toArray(T[] a)
If this deque fits in the specified array with room to spare
 (i.e., the array has more elements than this deque), the element in
 the array immediately following the end of the deque is set to
 null.
 
Like the toArray() method, this method acts as bridge between
 array-based and collection-based APIs.  Further, this method allows
 precise control over the runtime type of the output array, and may,
 under certain circumstances, be used to save allocation costs.
 
Suppose x is a deque known to contain only strings.
 The following code can be used to dump the deque into a newly
 allocated array of String:
  
  String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);
 Note that toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to
 toArray().toArray in interface Collection<E>toArray in class AbstractCollection<E>T - the runtime type of the array to contain the collectiona - the array into which the elements of the deque are to
