It might be good to introduce the word - A double-ended queue implemented with a growable ring buffer.

Oops, only now I noticed that I did find and replace the word "queue", leading to the unfortunate description "double-ended deque". Fixed. |

The public documentation of VecDeque starts describing itself as a "queue". In method descriptions, it's
neversometimes named queue again, orVecDeque
(IMO a sometimes useful and often noisy notation) or "deque" or "vector". In examples,deque
,v
(hidden inrange_mut
) orvector
. Here is a subjective attempt at more consistency.
