T, Earl Grey, Hot: Generics in .NET

Let the compiler work for you. Generics shift the burden of type-safety from the developer to the compiler. To understand Generics, we'll take a look at some .NET classes from the BCL (such as List), comparing the generic and non-generic versions. Then we'll add Generics to our own methods to add flexibility and type-safety. We may even run into topics such as covariance and contravariance along the way. No prior experience with generics is required, but knowing the basics of .NET programming will be helpful. Slides, Demo Code, and Walkthrough available here: http://www.jeremybytes.com/Demos.aspx
