Understanding the Adapter Design Pattern
Introduction
The Adapter Pattern acts as a bridge between two incompatible interfaces. This type of design pattern comes under the structural pattern category as it combines the functionality of two independent interfaces. The primary motivation behind this pattern is compatibility: it allows classes that could not otherwise work together due t ...

Implementing Object Construction Strategies: Builder and Prototype Patterns
The Builder Pattern
The Builder pattern is a creational design pattern aimed at constructing complex objects step by step. It enables the creation process to be independent of the representation, allowing the same construction logic to produce different results. Unlike simple factories that provide an object directly, the Builder patttern focus ...
