removing item from queue then viewing it?

[rajohns08]

i have created a queue of stacks. i am supposed to remove the first item from my queue (which is a stack of two words) and then view the top word of the stack i just removed. i know that i can say myqueue.front.top() to look at the word BEFORE i remove it...but how do i view the item after i remove it??

Obviously you'd need to copy it somewhere else before removing it. Once it's removed, it don't exist in the queue no more.

What difference does it make to view it before and after popping it.
