Generics allow programmers to write a function that can take any type of anrugments.
Example : T sum(T a, T b) {
return a+ b;
}
The sum function can take any type of data like string, integer, even, char, or float etc. We don't need to explicitly define the return type and paramerter type.
Example : T sum(T a, T b) {
return a+ b;
}
The sum function can take any type of data like string, integer, even, char, or float etc. We don't need to explicitly define the return type and paramerter type.

T indicates here generic data type there is necessary instead of declaring any data type for eg: function(Ta,Tb).we can use function(int a,int b), function(a,b),function(char a,char b)

Generic is the idea to allow data types like int, char, string Or user defined types. Etc. To be in the methode, class, Or interfaces.

In short, for any particular function using T as a datatype, can use any datatype as an argument.
