Design patterns

[rohit]

Hi there,
I was going thru one of faq, I didnt understood the question which allegedly was asked in the follow-up exam which goes something like this "what design patterns you used and why??", can anybody explain me what do you mean by design patterns and how many design patterns are there to implement a program? just to get an idea and access myself to write the exam.
Thanks in anticipation.

When programming people with lot of programming experience have found that usually there are some snippets of code which is quite often repeated most of the time so they have taken em generalized piece of code and kept it aside and that becomes "Design pattern" for that particular type of code.
You can learn more about design patterns by reading "Desing Patterns"
you can think of design patterns as pearl of wisdom from you elders so that you do not go about reinventing the wheel.
Hope it helps.
PS: you can e-mail me at [email protected] and i can even send you a free digital book named "design patterns" by James W. cooper.
