/**
* A [deque](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-ended_queue) is short for a double ended queue
* pronounced "deck" and sometimes referred to as a head-tail linked list. A deque is a data
* structure based on a doubly linked list, but only supports adding and removal of nodes from the
* beginning and the end of the list.
