Linearization rules

Scala Traits follow the following linearization rules in resolving the conflicts:

1. Take classes/traits available after the extends keyword.
2. Pick up the first one in that list from left to right.
3. Then, write down its complete hierarchy from left to right.
4. Pick up another trait from this list and perform the preceding step.
5. Repeat this step for all available traits.
6. Finally, the actual type of the instance.
7. Remove duplicates from top to bottom then left to right.
8. Write down the final list from bottom to top then left to right.

We can mix Scala Traits into classes using the extends keyword as the first entry, or with for the rest of the traits. We will explore it with one simple example here:

package com.packt.publishing.traits ...
