/**
 * An implementation of queues based on arrays.
 * The head of the queue starts out at the head of the array, allowing the queue to 
 * grow and shrink in constant time. 
 * This queue implementation is ideal for 
 * applications that require a queue with a known maximum size that expands 
 * in constant time.
 * <P>
 * Example usage:
 * <P>
 * To compute the sum of the unicode value of every character in the standard input
 * we could use the following:
 * <P>
 * <pre>
 * public static void main(String[] arguments)
 * {
 *     int charsInInput = QueueExample.countChars(argument);
 *     {@link QueueArray} q = new {@link #QueueArray(int) QueueArray(charsInInput)};
 *     int unicodeSum = 0;
 *
 *     if(arguments.length > 0){
 *         for(int i=0; i < arguments.length; i++){
 *             for(int j=0; j < arguments[i].length(); j++){
 *                 q.{@link #enqueue(Object) enqueue(new Character(arguments[i].charAt(j)))};
 *             }
 *         }
 *     }
 *
 *     while(!q.{@link #empty()}){
 *        char c = ((Character)q.{@link #dequeue()}).charValue();
 *        unicodeSum+=Character.getNumericValue(c);
 *     }
 *
 *     System.out.println("Total Value: " + unicodeSum);
 * }
 * </pre>
