Generics memory management

Question

I have question regarding how memory is managed for strong type Generics

List ints1 = new List();
ints1.Add(1); ints1.Add(2); ints1.Add         


        

Answer 1

Question 1: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6sh2ey19.aspx says:

The List class is the generic equivalent of the ArrayList class. It implements the IList generic interface using an array whose size is dynamically increased as required.

This looks like a simple array, that is just reallocated if it overflows. AFAIKR the size is doubled on every reallocation - I researched that once, but can't remember what for.

The array is allocated on the managed heap, just as it would if you just declared it.
