Let’s say I have a data structure, which is essentially a circularly linked list. The usage of this circularly linked list is to continuously be walked, and at each node, delivery the data at that node to consumers. Therefor, the more frequently the same thing appears in the circularly linked list, the more frequently it will be delivered to a consumer.
Is there a name for this data structure?
Circular queue, circular buffer, cyclic buffer or ring buffer. I think circular buffer is the most common name I’ve heard.
