Intermediate Java Tutorial - 19 - Generic Return Types

Sep 29, 2010 - It returns tots because it uses the ASC value for the characters a = 141, t = 164, c = 143.

Dec 23, 2010 - Thanks dude, you are great at explaining. Much better than my JAVA book could ever dream of explaining.

Jan 23, 2011 - How is it that tots is the most?

ra30r Says:

Feb 7, 2011 - well, 1 is before 42, but 42 is bigger than 1. same goes for apples and tots.

May 7, 2011 - If you have an ';' behind the if statement, it returns the last number you putted in (Don't know why), but if you remove it, it should work like in the tutorial.Again, this is wrong: "if(b.compareTo(a) > 0);", and this is right: "if(b.compareTo(a) > 0)"

Jun 20, 2011 - Hello Bucky,its very clear to understand except one thing ..My doubt is : wat is the need to use " T extends Comparable" in generic return type..I guessed it : since we used compareTo build in function or wat else?Plz clear the doubt..

Jun 26, 2011 - Hi Bucky, would you create a video on wildcards with generics? Thanks!

Jul 10, 2011 - does the method have to be static ? .. i mean in general , even if we use it in other class which doesn't have the static main method

Jul 16, 2011 - System.out.println("Thank you Bucky!");

Jul 19, 2011 - wow you are great at teaching this stuff...much better than my professor lol.

Mladenac Says:

Jul 24, 2011 - It doesn't. He doesn't need objects to present these concepts so he uses static method.You can try using generic methods in instance methods. ;)

scottyhuffmusic Says:

Aug 25, 2011 - i think it's because 't' comes later in the alphabet, i.e. a=1, b=2, c=3,... t=20...

Aug 27, 2011 - Hi this is nagarajan .. i was searching in net 2 days to learn generic methods . your video is really awesome .. i learnt well from your video thank you so much

Feb 7, 2012 - I have read the oracle tutorial, char is in unicode 16 format! can u please clear the ambiguity! some say ASCII and UNICODE 16????Help

Mar 12, 2012 - error why System.out.println(max(42,1,23));, return 23

anantama Says:

Apr 4, 2012 - T m must be assigned to a, if you would have missed that in the code then the value will be 23. and use import java.lang.Comparable; Cheers

Apr 17, 2012 - What if i want to khow what type of data is pass to me in a Max function e.g if i pass integer it prints u pass an integer or u pass String in case of strings how i do that...

djleisheng Says:

May 11, 2012 - If you want you can use a conditional statement instead of if statements for the body of the method, like this:T m = a;m = (b.compareTo(a) > 0) ? b : a;m = (c.compareTo(m) > 0) ? c: m;

djleisheng Says:

May 11, 2012 - Or if you want to put in as many objects as you want, change the paramaters to T...a. Then for your body: T last = a[0]; T m = a[0]; for(T i: a) m = (i.compareTo(last) > 0) ? i : m; last = i; return m;Note: make sure you put curly braces around the for loop, I just can't put them in because youtube won't let me. Make sure you close the braces after the line last = i;
