This section shows various approaches to working with deques.
The \method{rotate()} method provides a way to implement \class{deque}
slicing and deletion:
This pure python implementation of \code{del d[n]} shows how to use the
\method{rotate()} method as a building block for implementing a variety
of class{deque} operations:
slicing and deletion. For example, a pure python implementation of
\code{del d[n]} relies on the \method{rotate()} method to position
elements to be popped:
\begin{verbatim}
def delete_nth(d, n):
d.rotate(-n)

Multi-pass data reduction algorithms can be succinctly expressed and
efficiently coded by extracting elements using multiple calls to
\method{popleft()}, applying the reduction function, and using
\method{append()} for adding the result back to the queue.

For example, building a balanced binary tree of nested lists entails
reducing two adjacent nodes into one by grouping them in a list:
