CBuffer
Overview
A circular buffer, cyclic buffer or ring buffer is a data structure that uses a single, fixed-size buffer as if it were connected end-to-end. This structure lends itself easily to buffering data streams. This library impliments such a buffer.
Installation
gem install cbuffer
** Usage
require 'cbuffer'
a = CBuffer.new 5 => <CBuffer @size=5>
a.put 1 => false
a.put 2 => false
a.put "Duncan" => false
a.put 999 => false
a.get => 1
a.get => 2
a.get => "Duncan"
a.put "xxx" => false
a.get => 999
