How can I use the Queue class from the collections module in Python?

The Queue class in Python's collections module provides a thread-safe FIFO implementation. You can use it to manage tasks between threads.

Can you show me a simple example of how to implement it?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

from collections import deque

class ThreadSafeQueue:
    def __init__(self):
        self.queue = deque()

    def enqueue(self, item):
        self.queue.append(item)

    def dequeue(self):
        return self.queue.popleft() if self.queue else None

What if I want to limit the size of the queue?

You can modify the enqueue method to check the size before adding an item. Here's an example:

def enqueue(self, item):
    if len(self.queue) < MAX_SIZE:
        self.queue.append(item)
    else:
        print('Queue is full!')
