Description: The Template Method Pattern is a behavioral design pattern that defines the skeleton of an algorithm, allowing subclasses to define specific steps without changing the overall structure of the algorithm. This pattern is fundamental in object-oriented programming as it promotes code reuse and separation of concerns. By defining a method in a base class that contains the general logic, subclasses are allowed to implement or modify specific parts of the algorithm. This not only facilitates code extension but also improves maintainability, as changes in the general logic do not require modifications in the subclasses. The Template Method Pattern is particularly useful in situations where common behavior is needed, but with specific variations in certain steps of the process. Its implementation is based on creating an abstract method in the base class, which is then concretized in the subclasses, ensuring that the flow of the algorithm remains intact while allowing customization in the details. This pattern is widely used in various software frameworks and libraries, where developers are required to follow a specific workflow while having the flexibility to adapt certain aspects to their particular needs.
