What are constraints in generics?

Can you explain what constraints in generics are?

Sure! Constraints in generics are used to restrict the types that can be used as arguments in a generic class or method.

Why would I want to use constraints?

Using constraints helps ensure type safety and allows you to call methods or access properties that are specific to the constrained type.

Can you give me an example of how to use constraints?

Absolutely! For instance, in C#, you can use the where keyword to specify that a type parameter must implement a certain interface.

What happens if I don't use constraints?

If you don't use constraints, you might end up with runtime errors or lose the benefits of type safety, as any type could be passed.
