Implementing interfaces
Interfaces are a way to implement standard functionality and connect different types to make new things. Think of them like the studs on top of LEGO™ bricks, which allow them to “stick” together, or electrical standards for plugs and sockets.
If a type implements an interface, then it makes a promise to the rest of .NET that it supports specific functionality. Therefore, they are sometimes described as contracts.
