Short answer

Using modulo arithmetic (rear + 1) % size to wrap around pointers.

Deep explanation

Mid-level queue concepts involve specific optimizations and algorithm integration. Using modulo arithmetic (rear + 1) % size to wrap around pointers.

Real-world example

Managing requests in a web server buffer.
