Generics Interface in java

/*In similar way, we can create generic interfaces in java. We can also have multiple type parameters as in Map interface. Again we can provide parameterized value to a parameterized type also, for example new HashMap<String, List<String>>(); is valid.*/
package java.lang;
import java.util.*;

public interface Comparable<T> {
    public int compareTo(T o);

Generics Interface in java

/*Suppose we want to restrict the type of objects that can be used in the parameterized type, for example in a method that compares two objects and we want to make sure that the accepted objects are Comparables. To declare a bounded type parameter, list the type parameter’s name, followed by the extends keyword, followed by its upper bound, similar like below method.

The invocation of these methods is similar to unbounded method except that if we will try to use any class that is not Comparable, it will throw compile-time error.

Bounded type parameters can be used with methods as well as classes and interfaces.

Java Generics supports multiple bounds also, i.e <T extends A & B & C>. In this case, A can be an interface or class. If A is class then B and C should be an interface. We can’t have more than one class in multiple bounds.*/
public static <T extends Comparable<T>> int compare(T t1, T t2){
		return t1.compareTo(t2);
	}
