    Study Notes

    Software Design Principles

    • Design Principles are guidelines that help software developers organize methods, data structures, and classes into interconnected frameworks adaptable to changing requirements.
    • SOLID Principles are a set of five design principles that promote flexible and maintainable software.
      • Single Responsibility Principle (SRP): Each software module, class, or interface should have only one reason to change.
        • It ensures that each module is focused on a specific task.
        • Example: An Employee class should only be responsible for employee data and not salary calculations.
      • Open-Closed Principle (OCP): Software classes should be designed to allow for behavioral changes by adding new code rather than altering existing code.
        • This enables extending functionality without breaking existing code.
      • Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP): Derived classes should be substitutable for their base classes, promoting interchangeable modules and classes.
        • This principle ensures that code remains consistent when using inherited classes.
      • Interface Segregation Principle (ISP): Software designers should avoid dependencies on unused features.
        • This encourages focused interfaces that only expose necessary information.
      • Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP): Flexible software should depend on abstract classes or interfaces rather than concrete implementations.
        • It promotes loose coupling by relying on abstractions.

    Benefits of Using Design Principles

    • Reduced complexity of source code.
    • Increased readability, extensibility, and maintainability.
    • Reduced accidental errors.
    • Easier implementation of reusability.
    • Achievement of easier and better software testing.

    Single Responsibility Principle (SRP)

    • Each module, interface, or class should have only one reason to change, focusing its responsibility on a single task.
    • Changes in requirements often correspond to changes in responsibilities.
    • Classes with multiple responsibilities should be broken down into smaller, more focused classes.
    • A class can have multiple members like methods and variables as long as they relate to a single responsibility.
