    Default can I create an array in a parameterized class

    lets say I want to create a parameterized class

    public class MySet<T extends Comparable> implements Set<T> {
     
        T[] n;
     
        MySet(T a)
        {
     
        }
     
    }

    is it possible to create an array of type <T> inside the class?

    that's the problem I'm having. I don't know how to initialize a type <T> array. Also, I don't know the size of the array. Is it possible to do?
