Program: Write a simple generics class example.
Below example shows how to create a simple generics class. We have created SimpleGeneric
class, which accepts single type parameter. Look at the generics class definition, the type parameter should
be followed by class name and should contain with in <>, here T defines the type parameter. You can find
comments at example itself.
package com.java2novice.generics;
public class MySimpleGenerics {
public static void main(String a[]){
//we are going to create SimpleGeneric object with String as type parameter
SimpleGeneric<String> sgs = new SimpleGeneric<String>("JAVA2NOVICE");
sgs.printType();
//we are going to create SimpleGeneric object with Boolean as type parameter
SimpleGeneric<Boolean> sgb = new SimpleGeneric<Boolean>(Boolean.TRUE);
sgb.printType();
}
}
/**
* Here T is a type parameter, and it will be replaced with
* actual type when the object got created.
*/
class SimpleGeneric<T>{
//declaration of object type T
private T objReff = null;
//constructor to accept type parameter T
public SimpleGeneric(T param){
this.objReff = param;
}
public T getObjReff(){
return this.objReff;
}
//this method prints the holding parameter type
public void printType(){
System.out.println("Type: "+objReff.getClass().getName());
}
}

Stream and types of Streams
A Stream is an abstraction that either produces or consumes information. There are two types of Streams and they are:
Byte Streams: Provide a convenient means for handling input and output of bytes. Byte Streams classes are defined by using
two abstract classes, namely InputStream and OutputStream.
Character Streams: Provide a convenient means for handling
input & output of characters. Character Streams classes are defined by using two abstract classes, namely Reader and Writer.
If you don’t make mistakes, you’re not working on hard enough problems. And that’s a big mistake.
