What is the Higher-Kinded Type?
A higher-kinded type is a type that can stand for other types, which themselves stand for more types. It’s a way to talk about types that are built from other types. They let us write code that can handle many different kinds of things. You could also think of them as types that have their building blocks.
Note:
Higher-kinded types made their debut in Scala 2.5.
