Which design pattern aims to simplify a complex subsystem by providing a higher-level interface?
If Date dates[size] is a statically allocated array of Date objects and dates is an object of type Date, how would you call the print() method on the first element?

Flashcards
Entity Object
Entity Object
Represent real-world entities with minimal application logic, holding data related to them. Example: Student object stores student name, ID, and courses.
Control Object
Control Object
Responsible for managing program control and interactions, often containing functions that perform actions. Example: 'AddClass' function in a school management system.
Boundary Object
Boundary Object
Act as interfaces between the system and the outside world, handling input and output operations. Example: A user interface or a function that prints class details.

Study Notes
Object-Oriented Concepts
- Entity object: Represents real-world entities with minimal application logic (e.g., student, instructor).
- Control object: Manages program flow; doesn't hold much data (e.g., adding a class).
- Boundary object: Controls interactions between the system and the outside world (e.g., user interface).
- Collection object: Lists or arrays (e.g., a class list).
UML Diagrams
- UML diagrams include attributes and operations.
- Private attributes are prefixed with
for private. - Protected attributes are prefixed with
# for protected. - Public attributes are prefixed with
+ for public. - Abstract class names should be italicized.
- Static members are underlined.
- Friendship relationships are not shown.
Relationships
- Composition ("has-a"): A strong relationship where the existence of one object depends on another. Example: A team has a score
scoreGoal()is a method that returns void (doesn't return a value).
Collection Classes
- Collection classes often have constructors and destructors, along with getter and setter methods.
- These are not typically shown in UML diagrams.
- Inheritance is indicated by a triangle, not an arrow.
Object Attributes
- Object attributes are not listed individually; instead, the relationships between objects are shown.
Arrays
- Static arrays: Fixed size (e.g.,
Date dates[size]). - Dynamic arrays: Variable size (e.g.,
Date\* dates = new Date[size]).
Design Patterns
- Top-down inside out: A design approach.
- Facade: Simplifies complex classes into a simpler interface.
- Observer: Updates objects based on changes in other objects.
- Strategy: Defines various algorithms and lets objects choose which to use.
Design Categories
- Behaviour: Describes how objects interact.
- Architectural: Shows grouping of objects.
- Creational: Explains object creation mechanisms.
- Structural: Shows relationships between objects.
