You can remember this with the mnemonic that a cue file tells when each track on a CD starts, and a cue ball tells the billiard balls what order to go in the pockets, but a queue is a line of silent letters

> queue is a line of silent letters

glorious, thank you.

I feel like the data structure would be a better mnemonic device on its own. There is no std::cue, there is std::queue.

Shh, don’t let the C++ committee hear you! ;)

And a Q is an omnipotent being/continuum because in the 80’s it actually was cool to have a letter for a name.

Or the quartermaster with a penchant for nifty gadgets from MI6.

TIL. Thanks.

The queue starts with a cue, because it's not your turn until it's your cue.

>>Queue China cleans the air, but at what cost articles.

>Nit: You probably mean Cue, as in "That's your time to go on stage" not Queue as in "that's your place in line"

bone to pick: you missed your opportunity to cool-ly say "not queue as in hair worn in a long plait descending down the back"
