Circular queue is also known as a ring buffer. Why do you want to do this? It's fast. You don't have ot allocate anything. You allocate a buffer big enough once and then you just rotate which element in the array that you're using. If you reach the end of the buffer you just go back to the beginning by which time those elements have already been poped off. The trick is to pop things off the queue faster than you are pushing them on, which is always a good idea. The limitations is you have to know the max size of the queue before hand. You don't have to allocate additional memory.
