Introduction to Design Patterns
• • What are Design Patterns?
• • Common patterns: Singleton, Factory,
Observer
• • Importance of using design patterns in
software development
Singleton Design Pattern
• • Ensures a class has only one instance
• • Global access to that instance
• • Use cases: Logging, Configuration, Database
connections
• • Example: Singleton in C#
Example Code: Singleton in C#
• public class Singleton
• {
• private static Singleton _instance;
• private static readonly object _lock = new
object();
• private Singleton() { }
• public static Singleton Instance
Factory Design Pattern
• • Provides a way to create objects without
specifying the exact class
• • Promotes loose coupling between objects
• • Use cases: When a class doesn't know what
exact object to create
• • Example: Factory Pattern in C#
Example Code: Factory in C#
• public abstract class Product
• {
• public abstract void Display();
• }
• public class ConcreteProductA : Product
• {
• public override void Display() =>
Console.WriteLine("Product A created.");
Observer Design Pattern
• • Defines a one-to-many relationship between
objects
• • Allows multiple observers to be notified of
changes in a subject
• • Use cases: Event handling systems, GUI
frameworks
• • Example: Observer Pattern in C#
Example Code: Observer in C#
• public interface IObserver
• {
• void Update(string message);
• }
• public class ConcreteObserver : IObserver
• {
• public void Update(string message) =>
Console.WriteLine($"Received message:
Benefits of Using Design Patterns
• • Reusability of code
• • Improved readability and maintainability
• • Promotes best practices in software design
• • Reduces development time by providing
proven solutions
How to Choose the Right Pattern
• • Identify the problem you are trying to solve
• • Understand the trade-offs of each pattern
• • Choose patterns that promote scalability
and flexibility
• • Test different approaches to find the optimal
solution
Conclusion and Q&A
• • Design patterns are essential for scalable,
maintainable code
• • C# provides excellent support for
implementing design patterns
• • Use design patterns to solve common
