Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Implement a generic class that adds three different types of numbers, while ensuring type safety during addition. Include methods to return the total and the average of those three numbers.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how to ensure the types are compatible for arithmetic operations.

Question 2

Write a method that takes a List of a bounded type and calculates the maximum value. Ensure it runs on any numeric type.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Remember to utilize a loop and compare values.
