Returning a default value. (C#)

by

You are looking for the default keyword.

For example, in the example you gave, you want something like:

class MyEmptyDictionary<K, V> : IDictionary<K, V>
{
    bool IDictionary<K, V>.TryGetValue (K key, out V value)
    {
        value = default(V);
        return false;
    }

    ....

}
