I hope that the original poster understands that "anon's" answer is 
not correct. I agree that the newsgroup should not supply 
ready-made answers to homework or examination questions, but we 
should not supply false answers either.

To the OP: surely your study materials contain examples of generic 
functions or other generic components. Can you say more 
specifically what you don't understand in those examples, or in the 
question you are trying to solve?
