A generic subprogram is a type of subprogram in programming that allows for the definition of algorithms or functions that can operate on different data types without being rewritten for each type. This is achieved through the use of type parameters, enabling the same code to handle various data types in a type-safe manner. Generic subprograms promote code reusability and reduce redundancy, making it easier to maintain and extend programs. They are commonly used in languages that support generics, such as C++,
Java, and C#.
