Ariel Ortiz - (Tutorial) Design Patterns in Python for the Untrained Eye

Design patterns are prepackaged solutions to common software design problems. We get two important benefits when using them. Firstly, we get a way to solve typical software development issues by using a proven solution. Secondly, we get a shared vocabulary that allows us to communicate more effectively with other software designers. Getting acquainted with design patterns is the next step to become a better object oriented programmer.

In this tutorial we'll answer some of the most important questions surrounding design patterns: What are they? How can we use them in our programs? When should we avoid them? We'll also have the opportunity to explore and play with the Python implementations of some of the classical design patterns made famous by the Gang of Four (Gamma, Helm, Johnson & Vlissides) while learning relevant design principles at the same time. Don't forget to bring your own laptop with your preferred Python 3 development environment.

Transcript

  1. Patterns capture experiences in software development that have been proven

    to work again and again, and thus provide a solution to specific problems. They are not invented, they are discovered.
  2. Limitations of Design Patterns ▪ Unjustified Use ▪ Kludges for

    a Weak Programming Language ▪ Inefficient Solutions
  3. 23 Design Patterns Classified Based on their Use ▪ Creational

    Pattern ▪ Structural Patterns ▪ Behavioral Patterns
  4. Singleton is a creational design pattern that lets you ensure

    that a class has only one instance, while providing a global access point to this instance.
  5. Template Method is a behavioral design pattern that defines the

    skeleton of an algorithm in the base class but lets derived classes override specific steps of the algorithm without changing its structure.
  6. Adapter is a structural design pattern that converts the interface

    of a class into another interface clients expect. Adapter lets classes work together that couldn’t otherwise because of incompatible interfaces.
  7. Observer is a behavioral design pattern that defines a one-to-many

    dependency between objects so that when one object changes state, all its dependents are notified and updated automatically.
