+Notice how we can use yet another abstract type `U` in the specification of an upper-type-bound for `T`. This `class SeqBuffer` allows us to store only sequences in the buffer by stating that type `T` has to be a subtype of `Seq[U]` for a new abstract type `U`.
 
 Traits or [classes](classes.html) with abstract type members are often used in combination with anonymous class instantiations. To illustrate this, we now look at a program which deals with a sequence buffer that refers to a list of integers:

 It is also possible to turn abstract type members into type parameters of classes and vice versa. Here is a version of the code above which only uses type parameters:
