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.

Interface	Method(s)	Description
`IComparable`	`CompareTo(other)`	This defines a comparison method that a type implements to order or sort its instances.
