How does the Interface Segregation Principle relate to the idea of 'programming to an interface, not an implementation'?
ISP only applies to statically typed languages, while 'programming to an interface' is a dynamic language concept.
ISP helps achieve the flexibility of using different implementations by keeping interfaces minimal and focused on client needs.
ISP contradicts this idea by promoting the use of concrete classes.
They are unrelated concepts in software design.
How does DIP relate to the concept of 'inversion of control'?
Inversion of control is a specific implementation of DIP.
DIP is a specific implementation of inversion of control.
DIP and inversion of control are the same thing.
They are unrelated concepts.
How do SOLID principles contribute to reducing code complexity?
By promoting shorter code
By encouraging the use of design patterns
By promoting modular and decoupled code
By enforcing strict coding standards
Which of the following is the most accurate description of SOLID principles?
Strict rules that must be followed in all programming scenarios
Advanced design patterns for specific software architectures
Guidelines that help write more maintainable and scalable software
Tools for automatically generating code
What could be a potential downside of excessively applying the Interface Segregation Principle?
It reduces code reusability.
It can lead to a higher number of interfaces, potentially increasing code complexity.
It violates the principles of object-oriented programming.
It makes the code more difficult to unit test.
How can SOLID principles impact team collaboration in software development?
By promoting a shared understanding of code structure and design
By reducing the need for communication within the team
By automating code review processes
By enforcing strict coding style guidelines
Imagine an interface IWorker with methods work() and takeBreak(). You have two classes, Robot and Human, both implementing IWorker. How would you refactor this to better align with the ISP?
IWorker
work()
takeBreak()
Robot
Human
Keep the IWorker interface as is, as both classes can perform both actions.
Create two separate interfaces: IWorkable with work(), and IRest with takeBreak(). Implement them accordingly.
IWorkable
IRest
Make takeBreak() an abstract method within IWorker so only Human has to implement it.
Have Robot implement IWorker, but leave Human without an interface.
Which of the following best describes the Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP)?
Both high-level and low-level modules should depend on abstractions.
Abstractions should depend on concrete implementations.
Low-level modules should depend on high-level modules.
High-level modules should depend on low-level modules.
How can you identify multiple responsibilities within a class?
By counting the number of lines of code in the class.
By observing how many other classes it interacts with.
By checking if the class name is too long.
By looking for different reasons to change the class in the future.
How does the Interface Segregation Principle contribute to loose coupling in software design?
By promoting the use of concrete classes instead of interfaces.
By minimizing dependencies between classes to only what is absolutely necessary.
By reducing the need for unit testing.
By encouraging the use of global variables for communication between classes.
