Mid SOLID

How can you design classes that are open for extension but closed for modification?

To design classes that follow OCP:

  • Use abstraction (interfaces or abstract classes).
  • Rely on polymorphism and inheritance.
  • Apply composition over inheritance when suitable.
  • Follow design principles like Strategy, Decorator, or Template Method patterns.

✅ Extend behavior through new classes rather than modifying existing code.
