LinkedBlockingDeque
    open class LinkedBlockingDeque<E : Any!> : AbstractQueue<E>, BlockingDeque<E>, Serializable
    
    An optionally-bounded blocking deque based on linked nodes. 
    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(java.lang.Object), #removeFirstOccurrence, #removeLastOccurrence, #contains, #iterator, 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.

      Returns the number of additional elements that this deque can ideally (in the absence of memory or resource constraints) accept without blocking. This is always equal to the initial capacity of this deque less the current size of this deque. 
      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.

      remove
      
      open fun remove(element: E?): Boolean
      Removes the first occurrence of the specified element from this deque. If the deque does not contain the element, it is unchanged. More formally, removes the first element e such that o.equals(e) (if such an element exists). Returns true if this deque contained the specified element (or equivalently, if this deque changed as a result of the call). 
      This method is equivalent to #removeFirstOccurrence(java.lang.Object).

      toArray
      
      open fun toArray(): Array<Any!>
      Returns an array containing all of the elements in this deque, in proper sequence (from first to last 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.
      
        
          
            | Return | 
          
            | Array<Any!> | an array containing all of the elements in this deque | 
        
      
     
    
      toArray
      
      open fun <T : Any!> toArray(a: Array<T>): Array<T>
      Returns an array containing all of the elements in this deque, in proper sequence; the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array. If the deque fits in the specified array, it is returned therein. Otherwise, a new array is allocated with the runtime type of the specified array and the size of this deque. 
      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: 
      <code>String[] y = x.toArray(new String[0]);</code>
 Note that 
toArray(new Object[0]) is identical in function to 
toArray().

            | a | Array<T>: the array into which the elements of the deque are to be stored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of the same runtime type is allocated for this purpose |
