GoF Patterns
Gang of Four Patterns
Text Editor (Undo/Redo Functionality):?
Short answer: In a text editor (such as Microsoft Word or Notepad), users can press Ctrl + Z to undo the most recent changes. Each time the user types, the editor saves a snapshot of the text as a Memento. Pressing Ctrl + Z restores the text to its previous state.
Real-world example (ShopNest)
Use a GoF pattern in ShopNest only when it removes duplication or makes a change safer—explain the problem it solves in the interview.
Say this in the interview
- Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
- Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
- Trade-off — when you would not use it.
