you explain things very clearly, and I'm grateful for such a high quality video. Thanks! That said, I have some perplexities with the example you're using (maybe because of my limited understanding; please do not take them as criticisms). 1. In my understanding the strategy pattern is not well-suited to the example. If you have to create a "NoFly" class for the RedDuck, then you're not much better off than the initial suggestion of overring the fly() method in the RedDuck with a "do nothing" method. If the RedDuck cannot fly, in an ideal design one shouldn't tell it how to fly at all. Also, every time I instantiate a RedDuck, I have to remember to pass it the "NoFly" object, but nothing prevents me from passing it another flying strategy. Surely design patterns should "design out" possible bugs, but in this example this doesn't seem to be the case to me. Wikipedia reports, on its "strategy pattern" page, a different example which looks much better to me. It's about a restaurant bill, containing a List of orders and prices, and the "strategy" concerns possible discounts applied to the prices. In this case too there is a "NoDiscounts" strategy, but the situation to me is different. There's only one class, RestauntantBill, and naturally all RestauntantBill instances need to know what discounts should be applied ("no discounts today" is a reasonable strategy); on the other hand the "duck" example mixes the strategy pattern with inheritance, IMHO. 2.If your example the performFly() method takes no arguments and just prints out a string. This is not wrong, but in many example of the Strategy pattern the "Strategy" method actually changed the internal state of Duck class they belong to, ie they are of the type performFly(this). This took me some time to get my head around, and I think a full explanation should also comprehend this more complex situation. 3. I personally don't really like these examples with Ducks, Dogs, Animals and so on. I'd much prefer a realistic (or at least semi-realistic) situation. This is because, with the Ducks example, I have to do an extra abstraction effort to remember what the heck I want to do with these essentially meaningless classes and methods. But this may be just me. In any case thanks again for the video. Regardless of whether my observation has a basis or not, just reflecting on these things helps understanding.

Very good comment, i think almost the same, especially your 1.point. Creating a Dummy Method feels wrong, but after thinking a while, i think thats not that bad. See it as a Finance Balance Sheet, you getting all Benefits, and If one concrete Claas has a slightly different Behaviors, thats the price you gonna need to pay. At some Point you need to Code the exception , If you otherwise want to Profit from all the benefits. What Brothers me more, is that the concrete Claas has a fly Method, but it will never get called, even worse, it could be missleading for the client. One option my be to make the instance variable optional ? FlyBehavior fb: IFlyBevahior | null. Will this Work or has someone an elegant solution for this ?
@2NormalHuman10 ай бұрын
Yes I think creating a dummy NoFly class is bad because it violates Liskov Substitution principle. Because you are expecting a call to fly method to result in a fly, but this implementation does nothing.

Hi, thanks for the great toutorial, I just had one question, by including the instance variable in base class is it breaking liskovs substitution principle? Because now every derived class knows about the fly method and it needs a implementation even if it does not know to fly?
@blvckchocolvte2 жыл бұрын
It is not breaking liskovs substitution because the parent Duck class is the one which implements the FlyBehaviour, in this case the subclasses aren't forced to implement the interface but simply invoke the methods from the Parent class which makes sense to them.

rather than using dependency injection, function to set fly behavior in Duck class would be better I guess. Doing that if we have to add another behavior we just have to add another function to set rather than adding dependency everytime when adding a new behavior.

@Uncle-gj9in2 жыл бұрын
I'm just learning but I think your example is not entirely correct. As you did it, every duck has to fly because you are taking the instance FlyBehavior into the constructor of abstract class Duck. What about ducks that do not fly and do not need FlyBehavior? I think a possible solution would be to create the second constructor of the abstract class Duck without instantiating FlyBehavior.

I don't like the example. How a duck flies isn't separable from the duck. I would do something like say you're building a robot and it could have wheels that roll or legs that walk and they both implement a move interface. Also the joke you missed would be if one of the ducks flew Delta or some other airline.

"Real life scenario", then the silly duck thing? To me that is not a real life scenario.Real life implies something you might actually use like input or output of data in json, csv, or yaml, or if you wanted to stay academic, calculating grades based various grading schemes. There are probably hundreds of other simple examples. Personally I find examples i can imagine using much more inspiring than abstract caricatures of algorithms.
