Head First Design Patterns - Decorator Pattern?

Reading your question, I remember thinking the exact same thing when I read the chapter. Even with the use of decorators, you're still going to have to add a lot of code whenever you add a new beverage to the menu.

As Martin mentions it's just an example to illustrate the principle so you shouldn't get too hung up on whether it's appropriate.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
