Generic Functions in Scala <font size=-2><a href=http://www.lifemichael.com/en/?page_id=73 target=_blank>PRO</a></font>

The Scala programming language allows us to define generic functions. This code sample shows that. object Sample { def main(args:Array[String]):Unit = { val ob = getMyStack[Int](10) } def getMyStack[T](num:Int) = { new MyStack[T](num) } } class MyStack[T](size:Int) { //… } The following video clips overviews this code sample, shows its execution and provides more information.
