Use some newer language features to increase the signal/noise ratio in code samples used to describe generics in C#. - Make code shorter through auto properties. - Narrow scope of <Snippet> areas to remove boilerplate. - Use target-typed new. - Remove redundant constructor. Note we could go further with the language features here (such as collection initializers) but as this seems like a very fundamental level article I thought it best to use more explicit forms.
