More from rattfieldnz
rattfieldnz/ArtDatabaseLINQ
This is an app I made to practice my LINQ skills - using in-memory objects instead of an external database.
rattfieldnz/BicycleObserverPatternApp
This is my first go at implementing the observer design pattern, in C#. After coding this, I quickly realised how powerful this design pattern can be - especially thinking how it might be used in large-scale enterprise apps. I learned the observer pattern in my programming class, and by looking at sites such as http://www.dofactory.com/Patterns/PatternObserver.aspx.
rattfieldnz/FactoryDesignWildlifeSimulator
This is my first go at implementing the Factory Design Pattern for an application. By using this design pattern, I was able to decouple a lot of code, by delegating responsibility of animal creation to their respective factories. In this example, I implemented two factories - one for North American species, and the other for Australian species. After finishing this application, I quickly realized the code will be easier to maintain than previous applications I have coded. I used Single Responsibility principle so each object is only responsible for its own jobs, Open-Closed principle so classes/objects can be modified by extension, and the Liskov Substitution principle for the Animal classes (each child can be substituted for it's base class).
