Description

A static type system is an important tool in efficiently developing correct software. The recent introduction of “genericity” in object-oriented programming languages has greatly enhanced the expressiveness of their type systems. Genericity, which is also called parametric polymorphism”, is extremely useful as it allows the definition of polymorphic lists, which use a type parameter to abstract over the type of their elements.
