What is Java Variance: A Generics Tutorial about?

This document introduces the concepts of variant generic classes and statically safe arrays in Java. It describes read-only generic classes that allow the use of subclasses as arguments. For example, a method that takes a List+Shape can accept a List<Line> since it only reads from the list and does not write to it. The document also introduces statically checked arrays, which provide the same compile-time type safety guarantees as generic classes to prevent runtime errors from writing to arrays.
