scala-for-java-programmers.md - Java has had generics for 20 years now

Open kaya3 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

In https://github.com/scala/docs.scala-lang/blob/main/_overviews/tutorials/scala-for-java-programmers.md it is said that:

Java programmers should be well aware of the problems posed by the lack of genericity in their language, a shortcoming which is addressed in Java 1.5.

This comes across as odd, as Java 1.5 was released in 2004. I would guess that most Java programmers reading this tutorial have always known Java to have generics. I suggest that this sentence be removed.
