If you are a fan of the strategy pattern, and you find yourself adding a lot of conditional logic around each strategy then you should consider replacing all branching logic using inversion of control. Take the following code as an example. It defines a strategy for reading different file types. For simplicity, the code writes out to the console a message, in a real-world application, the logic would be far more complex, but we are not interested in that logic, rather we are interested in how the strategy pattern works and how we can improve its usage....
