Output:

content: [a,b,c,d,e], content (LIFO): [e->d->c->b->a]

after resizing to 4 items in FIFO style (keeping the newest):
content: [b,c,d,e], content (LIFO): [e->d->c->b]

after resizing to 2 items in LIFO style (keeping the oldest):
content: [b,c], content (LIFO): [c->b]

after resizing to 0 items, thereby deleting all items:
content: [], content (LIFO): []

after resizing to 2, size=2 and items=0
after queuing the three items 'x', 'y', 'z':
content: [y,z], content (LIFO): [z->y]

after pushing the three items '1', '2', '3':
content: [3,2], content (LIFO): [2->3]
