8.7. Summary

The goal of this chapter was to provide a detailed view of the generic types that have been added to the BCL. To meet that objective, this chapter started out by providing a high-level overview of all the classes, interfaces, and enumerators that are part of the library. It also supplied examples and reference information for each of the new generic classes that are part of the BCL. The main idea was to equip you some insight into the basic mechanics of each of these classes. Beyond these mechanics, this chapter also tried to provide some context for how and when you might apply each of these generic types.
