Chapter 18.4, Problem 18.15CP
Program Plan Intro
Generic class:
- It is a class in which the class name is followed by the type parameter section.
- In generic class, one or more type arguments are separated by commas.
- The programmers are enabled to specify a single class declaration with a set of related type.
Generic method:
- Methods that introduce their own type parameters are called as generic method.
- List of type parameters included inside the angle bracket which appears before the method’s return type.
- In generic method, type parameters are allowed to express the dependencies among the types of one or more arguments and its return type.
- The programmers are enabled to specify a single method declaration with a set of related methods.

(Generic Method IsEqualTo) Write a simple generic version of method IsEqualTo that compares its two arguments with the Equals method, and returns true if they’re equal and false otherwise. Use this generic method in a program that calls IsEqualTo with a variety of simple types, such as object or int. What result do you get when you attempt to run this program?
Write a generic class that stores two elements of the same type and can tell the user which one is the larger between the two. The type of the two elements should be parameterized and the class should have a function called “maxElement” that returns the larger element.
