Usage: ○ In the Program class, you create an instance of Adaptee and then wrap it with an Adapter. The adapter.Request() call works seamlessly with the incompatible SpecificRequest() method, allowing the system to interact with the third-party library as if it were designed for the current system interface. class Program { static void Main() {

Short answer: daptee adaptee = new Adaptee(); ITarget adapter = new Adapter(adaptee); dapter.Request(); // Outputs: Specific request from daptee.

Explain a bit more

} } daptee adaptee = new Adaptee(); ITarget adapter = new Adapter(adaptee); dapter.Request(); // Outputs: Specific request from daptee. } } daptee adaptee = new Adaptee(); ITarget adapter = new Adapter(adaptee); dapter.Request(); // Outputs: Specific request from daptee. } } daptee adaptee = new Adaptee(); ITarget adapter = new Adapter(adaptee); dapter.Request(); // Outputs: Specific request from daptee. } }

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

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
