I'm currently in a Data Structures Class and am running into a bit of trouble with my Linked List Queue based Implementation Project- I have everything built however my new instance of lined list is not telling me to add a cast to the "llq" instance I created. Below is my LinkedList class and my Driver Class.

Please be kind! This particular subject/topic has be a bit lost- I'm open to any and all feedback- thank you!

  import java.util.LinkedList;

  public class LinkedListQueue {

//Declaring Linked List, Node Head & Tail
LinkedList<String> list; 
Node head;
Node tail;

class Node{
    int data;
    Node prev;
    Node next;

/**

    data = d;
}
}

}

/**

    list.add(string);
}

public void dequeue(){
    if(list.isEmpty()){   /*check if linked list is empty*/
        System.out.println("The Queue is Empty.");
    }
    else {
        list.removeFirst();    /*remove first element of linked list*/
    }
}

/**
 * Size Method (Size of queue)
 * @param list
 * @return size

public int size(){
    return list.size();    
}

/**

public void display(){
    for(int i=0;i< list.size();i++){     
        System.out.print(list.get(i)+"  ");   
    }
    System.out.println("\n");
}

/**
 * getHead Method (gets head of the queue)
 * @param list
 * @return first element
 */ 
public String getHead(){

    if(list.isEmpty()){
        return "The Queue is Empty.";
    }
    else {
        return list.getFirst();
    }
}

/**

public String getTail(){

    if(list.isEmpty()){
        return "The Queue is Empty.";
    }
    else {
        return list.getLast();
     }
}

    if(list.isEmpty()){     /*checks if linked list is empty*/
        return true;
    }
    else{
        return false;
    }
}

/**

public void deleteQueue() {
    list.clear();
}
}

 public class Driver{

   public static void main(String[] args){

       //New instance of linked list queue

  • On top of the answer given by luk2302, there are many issues in your program. Examples - wrong use of @param (what you used wrongly for the methods which do not take any argument), then the use of Node (what you never used for any functionality) , redundant logic in isEmpty method. There are many issues !!! – soumya-kole Oct 09 '20 at 20:50

Should be

LinkedListQueue llq = new LinkedListQueue();

instead since you do not want an ordinary LinkedList but your own wrapper around it.
