Bounded Type Parameter in Java Generics

In Java Generics, a situation can arise where we need to restrict or bound an object type to specific types only in order to narrow down the acceptable types supported in the type parameter. For instance, a method that deals with numbers, should accept Number and its sub-classes. Bounded Types: The concept of limiting type parameter upto certain type is known as bounded types. In this, extends…

Generic programming is a way of creating classes, interfaces, and methods to work with various data types. It provides the flexibility to write a feature that is independent of the specific datatypes. In simple words, it allows us to create a class, interface, or method that accepts various datatypes automatically in the parameterized way. Therefore, Generics concept is also termed as…
