Questions and Answers

What is the primary requirement for using the Composite pattern in an application?

  • The app's core model can be represented as a graph
  • The app's core model can be represented as a tree (correct)
  • The app has a large number of objects
  • The app uses a large amount of memory
  • What is the main challenge in calculating the total price of an order containing both products and boxes?

  • Determining the price of individual products
  • Determining the nesting level of the boxes
  • Unwrapping all the boxes to access the products
  • Knowing the classes of Products and Boxes being used (correct)
  • What is the result of using the direct approach to calculate the total price of an order?

  • It reduces the complexity of the code
  • It becomes too simple to implement
  • It becomes too awkward or impossible to implement (correct)
  • It becomes more efficient to implement

    Study Notes

    Composite Pattern

    • The Composite pattern allows you to compose objects into tree structures and treat them as individual objects.
    • This pattern is suitable when the core model of an application can be represented as a tree.

    Problem Scenario

    • Consider an ordering system with two types of objects: Products and Boxes.
    • A Box can contain multiple Products and smaller Boxes.
    • Smaller Boxes can also hold Products or other smaller Boxes, creating a nested structure.

    Challenges in Calculating Total Price

    • Determining the total price of an order is complex due to the nested structure of Boxes.
    • The direct approach is impractical or impossible in programming due to:
      • Need to know the classes of Products and Boxes beforehand.
      • Need to consider the nesting level of Boxes and other details.
      • Inability to simply run a loop to calculate the total price.
