AiS 37: .NET Generics

Listen Now

I recently had the opportunity to speak at the Dallas .NET Users Group. My talk was entitled .NET Generics: more than just containers. You can find slides and code at the topic site.

We had a lot of people in attendance, and many great comments afterward. I was particularly impressed with the diversity of experience represented by the people who wanted to talk after the presentation. I spoke with people completely unfamiliar with generics, as well as some who have already been using the techniques presented.

What most impressed me, though, is that all of these people, regardless of experience level, found something to take away from the discussion. The beginners will be opening angle brackets for the first time for something other than HTML. And the experts will be experimenting with composite algorithms.

It just goes to show that no matter how much we know, there's always more to learn. Enjoy the adventure.
