First off, two bits to make it easier on us all.
1) Use the "code block" button above, even for small examples.
2) Just above the "Post Messaeg" button is a box marked "Encode HTML tags when pasting" this means that < and > are displayed corretly, with any contents.

So, I assume what you meant was:
What's does the <T> mean in a List<T>?


A old fashioned List can hold any type of object, so you could use:
List list = new List();
list.Add(new TextBox());
list.Add(123);
list.Add("Hello");

without complaint, if you meant to or not.
When you came to use list though, you would have to check what type of object you had, or a run time error would occur.
Newer versions are type safe - you can only include the declared type:
List<TextBox> list = new List<TextBox>();
list.Add(new TextBox());
list.Add(123);
list.Add("Hello");

would give compiler errors for the integer and string.

No trees were harmed in the sending of this message; however, a significant number of electrons were slightly inconvenienced.
