Strategy: Implementation and Example

Explore the Strategy design pattern by implementing a C# console application that plays audio on Linux and Windows. Understand how to use strategy for one-off actions and differentiate it from factory methods.

We’ll build an application that can play audio on both Linux and Windows operating systems. It’ll be similar to the application we built while looking at the Factory Method design pattern. This time, instead of conditionally returning an appropriate player, we’ll conditionally trigger a one-off playback.

This demonstrates the fundamental difference ...
