GoF Patterns
Gang of Four Patterns
Concrete Element Classes (Book and Fruit):?
Short answer: The concrete element classes Book and Fruit implement the IShoppingCartElement interface. Each class has a price and the Accept method that allows the visitor to perform an operation on it. public class Book : IShoppingCartElement
Example code
{
public double Price { get; }
public Book(double price) => Price = price;
public void Accept(IShoppingCartVisitor visitor) => visitor.Visit(this); }
public class Fruit : IShoppingCartElement
{
public double Price { get; }
public Fruit(double price) => Price = price;
public void Accept(IShoppingCartVisitor visitor) => visitor.Visit(this); }
Real-world example (ShopNest)
Use a GoF pattern in ShopNest only when it removes duplication or makes a change safer—explain the problem it solves in the interview.
Say this in the interview
- Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
- Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
- Trade-off — when you would not use it.
