Q & A
What is the primary focus of this tutorial session?
-This session focuses on understanding the SOLID design principles, including what the SOLID acronym stands for and why these principles are important for software design.
What does the SOLID acronym represent?
-The SOLID acronym represents five design principles intended to make software designs more understandable, flexible, and maintainable.
Who introduced the SOLID principles, and where did the acronym originate?
-The SOLID principles were promoted by Robert C. Martin, and the SOLID acronym was first introduced by Michael Feathers.
What does the Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) state?
-The Single Responsibility Principle (SRP) states that a class should have only one reason to change, meaning every module or class should have responsibility over a single part of the functionality provided by the software.
Can you explain the Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP)?
-The Liskov Substitution Principle (LSP) states that objects in a program should be replaceable with instances of their subtypes without altering the correctness of the program. Derived types must be substitutable for their base types.
What does the Open/Closed Principle (OCP) entail?

What is the Interface Segregation Principle (ISP)?
-The Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) states that many client-specific interfaces are better than one general-purpose interface, meaning clients should not be forced to implement interfaces they don't use.
What is the Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) about?
-The Dependency Inversion Principle (DIP) states that one should depend on abstractions, not concretions. High-level modules should not depend on low-level modules, and abstractions should not depend on details.
What issues might arise if SOLID principles are not followed in programming?
-If SOLID principles are not followed, issues like tight coupling of code, difficulties in implementing new features, untestable code, code duplication, and new bugs emerging from fixing existing ones may arise.
How do SOLID principles contribute to software development?
-SOLID principles help reduce code complexity, increase readability, extensibility, and maintainability, reduce errors, improve reusability, and enhance testability, ultimately leading to a more robust application.

Transcripts
hello everyone my name is avish and this
is part one of the solid design
principles tutorial
in this session we will understand what
is solid acronym and what are the solid
design principles and we'll discuss why
we need to adapt to the solid principles
in detail
let us now discuss solid principles in
detail
solid principles are the design
principles that enables us manage most
of the software design problems
the term solid is an acronym for phi
design principles
internet to make software designs more
understandable flexible and maintainable
the solid principles are subset of many
principles promoted by robert c martin
the solid acronym was first introduced
by michael feathers
let's now understand the solid acronym
s in solid stands for single
responsibility principle and o stands
for open close principle and l for
liskow substitution principle and i for
interface segregation principle and d
for dependency inversion principle
let's now take a look at each of these
principles definitions
single responsibility principle
robert c martin expresses the principle
as
a clash should have only one reason to
change
which means every module or class should
have responsibility over a single part
of the functionality provided by the
software and that responsibility should
be entirely encapsulated by the class
the next principle is list call
substitution principle
this is introduced by barbara aliskau
and it states that
objects in a program should be
replaceable with instances of their
subtypes
without altering the correctness of that
program
which means if a program module is using
a base class
then the reference to the base class can
be replaced with a
derived class without affecting the
functionality of the program module
we can also state that
derived types must be substitutable for
their
base types
the third principle is open close
principle
open close principle states that
software entities should be open for
extension but close for modification
if you're wondering what that means
it states that
the design and writing of the code
should be done in such a way that
new functionality
can be added with minimum set of changes
in the existing code
that means a design should allow a way
of adding new functionality as new
classes
and
keeping as much as possible existing
code unchanged
let's now take a look at the fourth
principle which is the interface
aggregation principle
the interface aggregation principle
state that
many client specific interfaces are
better than one general purpose
interface
which means we should not enforce
clients to implement interfaces that
they don't use
instead of creating one big interface we
can break down it to smaller interfaces
let's now take a look at the final
principle which is the dependency
inversion principle
the dependency inversion principle
states that one should depend on upon
abstractions and not on concretions
abstraction should not depend on the
details whereas the details should
depend on abstractions
high level module should not depend on
low level modules
now you may be wondering what will
happen if we don't follow this solid
principles in the programming
let's see what will happen if we don't
follow these solid principles
if you don't follow this principle we
may end up with tight or strong coupling
of the code but many other modules or
applications
and this tight coupling causes time to
implement any new requirement features
or any bug fixes and sometimes it
creates unknown issues as well
we may also end up with a code which is
not testable
further we end up with duplication of
lot of code in the application
and we may end up creating new bugs by
fixing another bug in the application
not just these above we may also end up
with many unknown issues in the
application development life cycle
by following the solid principles
it helps us to achieve reduction in
complexity of code
it also helps us to increase readability
extensibility and maintenance and it
helps in reducing any errors in the
application and it implements
reusability it also helps to achieve
better testability and it further
reduces tight coupling of the code hence
we can say that solution to develop a
successful application depends on three
factors
one is the architecture
choosing an architecture is the first
step in designing application based on
the requirements
number two design principles
application development process need to
follow these design principles
to make the application robust and
performant
number three design patterns
we need to choose correct design
patterns to build the software if you
are confused at this moment on how we
can apply these design principles in the
application development
don't worry
as we are going to take a look at them
in greater details in the upcoming
sessions
in the next session we will discuss
single responsibility principle in
detail with a simple example
thank you for listening and have a great
day
