Composite en Python
Composite es un patrón de diseño estructural que permite componer objetos en una estructura en forma de árbol y trabajar con ella como si fuera un objeto único.
El patrón Composite se convirtió en una solución muy popular para la mayoría de problemas que requieren la creación de una estructura de árbol. La gran característica del Composite es la capacidad para ejecutar métodos de forma recursiva por toda la estructura de árbol y recapitular los resultados.
Complejidad:
Popularidad:
Ejemplos de uso: El patrón Composite es muy común en el código Python. Se utiliza a menudo para representar jerarquías de componentes de interfaz de usuario o el código que trabaja con gráficos.
Identificación: El Composite es fácil de reconocer por los métodos de comportamiento que toman una instancia del mismo tipo abstracto/interfaz y lo hacen una estructura de árbol.
Ejemplo conceptual
Este ejemplo ilustra la estructura del patrón de diseño Composite. Se centra en responder las siguientes preguntas:
- ¿De qué clases se compone?
- ¿Qué papeles juegan esas clases?
- ¿De qué forma se relacionan los elementos del patrón?

In some cases, it would be beneficial to define the child-management

the leaf-level components.
