b: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(2)

As with ++, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.
As with ++, returns a new collection containing the elements from the left operand followed by the elements from the right operand.
It differs from ++ in that the right operand determines the type of the resulting collection rather than the left one. Mnemonic: the COLon is on the side of the new COLlection type.
Example:
```
scala> val x = List(1)
x: List[Int] = List(1)

scala> val y = LinkedList(2)
y: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(2)

scala> val z = x ++: y
z: scala.collection.mutable.LinkedList[Int] = LinkedList(1, 2)

This overload exists because: for the implementation of ++: we should reuse that of ++ because many collections override it with more efficient versions.
Since TraversableOnce has no ++ method, we have to implement that directly, but Traversable and down can use the overload.
B

That

def aggregate[B](z: B)(seqop: (B, Char) ⇒ B, combop: (B, B) ⇒ B): B

Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.
Aggregates the results of applying an operator to subsequent elements.
This is a more general form of fold and reduce. It has similar semantics, but does not require the result to be a supertype of the element type. It traverses the elements in different partitions sequentially, using seqop to update the result, and then applies combop to results from different partitions. The implementation of this operation may operate on an arbitrary number of collection partitions, so combop may be invoked an arbitrary number of times.
For example, one might want to process some elements and then produce a Set. In this case, seqop would process an element and append it to the list, while combop would concatenate two lists from different partitions together. The initial value z would be an empty set.
```
pc.aggregate(Set[Int]())(_ += process(_), _ ++ _)
```
Another example is calculating geometric mean from a collection of doubles (one would typically require big doubles for this).
B
the type of accumulated results
z
the initial value for the accumulated result of the partition - this will typically be the neutral element for the seqop operator (e.g. Nil for list concatenation or 0 for summation)
seqop
an operator used to accumulate results within a partition
