  2. Code refactoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_refactoring

    Refactoring is usually motivated by noticing a code smell. [2] For example, the method at hand may be very long, or it may be a near duplicate of another nearby method. Once recognized, such problems can be addressed by refactoring the source code, or transforming it into a new form that behaves the same as before but that no longer "smells".

  3. Type generalization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_generalization

    An example of generalizing a type would be moving a method from a child to a parent class for common use by all the parent class' children, not just the original child. Another example, in the Java programming language , would be access to an object via an interface which isn't tied into a specific implementation of that interface.

  4. Observer pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Observer_pattern

    A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the observer design pattern. [6] In this UML class diagram, the Subject class does not update the state of dependent objects directly. Instead, Subject refers to the Observer interface (update()) for updating state, which makes the Subject independent of how the state of dependent objects is updated.

  5. Software design pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_design_pattern

    Sample Code: An illustration of how the pattern can be used in a programming language. Known Uses: Examples of real usages of the pattern. Related Patterns: Other patterns that have some relationship with the pattern; discussion of the differences between the pattern and similar patterns.

  6. Design Patterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_Patterns

    The book includes examples in C++ and Smalltalk. It has been influential to the field of software engineering and is regarded as an important source for object-oriented design theory and practice. More than 500,000 copies have been sold in English and in 13 other languages. [1] The authors are often referred to as the Gang of Four (GoF). [2] [3 ...

  7. Rule of three (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_three_(computer...

    Rule of three ("Three strikes and you refactor") is a code refactoring rule of thumb to decide when similar pieces of code should be refactored to avoid duplication. It states that two instances of similar code do not require refactoring, but when similar code is used three times, it should be extracted into a new procedure.

  8. Object-oriented programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object-oriented_programming

    For example, a simple linearized object would consist of a length field, a code point identifying the class, and a data value. A more complex example would be a command consisting of the length and code point of the command and values consisting of linearized objects representing the command's parameters.

  9. Composite pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composite_pattern

    A sample UML class and object diagram for the Composite design pattern. [5] In the above UML class diagram, the Client class doesn't refer to the Leaf and Composite classes directly (separately). Instead, the Client refers to the common Component interface and can treat Leaf and Composite uniformly.
