#d.patterns Design pattern implementations

##Notes:

• The anti patterns will be annotated with @Deprecated tag

##Definitions

• Gamma Categorization
  • Creational Patterns
    • creation and construction of objects
    • Explicit (constructor) vs. implicit (DI, reflection, etc.)
    • Wholesale (single statement) vs. piecewise (step-by-step)
  • Structural Patterns
    • ??? Concerned with the structure (e.g., class members)
    • ??? Wrappers that mimic the underlying class interface.
    • ??? Stress the importance of good API design.
  • Behavioral Patterns
    • They are all different; no central theme
