How can a dynamic be used as a generic?

Question

How can I use a dynamic as a generic?

This

var x = something not strongly typed;
callFunction();

and this

Answer 1

You get that error because x is not a type. You need to specify a type as a type parameter.

In fact, you can use dynamic as a type parameter if you use it correctly:

var dict = new Dictionary();

dict.Add("Item1", 123);
dict.Add("Item2", "Blah");

This compiles and runs just fine.
