Strategy: Strategy is a behavioural pattern, which allows to change the algorithm dynamically from a family of related algorithms. UML of Strategy pattern from Wikipedia : import java.util.*; /* Interface for Strategy */ interface OfferStrategy { public String getName(); public dou...

The following is a simple example of using the strategy pattern without a context class. There are two implementation strategies which implement the interface and solve the same problem in different ways. Users of the EnglishTranslation class can call the translate method and choose which strategy t...

The purpose of this example is to show how we can realize the Strategy pattern using Java 8 functional interfaces. We will start with a simple use case codes in classic Java, and then recode it in the Java 8 way. The example problem we using is a family of algorithms (strategies) that describe dif...
