Queues are one of mostly widely used datastructures. when you store items in a queue ,you expect them to come out in the same sequence. In simple words , the principle is First In First Out.
Queue support atleast 2 Operations, EnQueue and Dequeue.
Enqueue add item to the queue whereas Dequeue removes the items.
other operations include Peek (getting first item without removing,) Count( no.of items in the queue). etc
A priority queue is also a queue , but the item with highest priority will come out first.

Example: Printer queue
Separate print jobs can take a while to complete. When mulitple print jobs are pending, they reside in a print queue - a 'line' of print jobs waiting their turn. As each is processed, the next advances to the top of the queue.
