i am required to provide a
redesign and
refactoring of the classes that provides
maximum reusability, extensibility and eliminates as many dependencies as possible in the
class Alpha. i am free to change any of the classes in any way i wish, including renaming,
changing method signatures and deriving new types. but i am beginner to oop and dont know where to start and how it should be done and what the result will be like and why?
so can anyone please provide steps for refactoring thanks.
so the code stubs below do
* The method `alpha()` returns an instance of Object based on a `Status` and DayOfWeek.
* Either of the classes `Beta` and `Gamma` can be used to handle a `Status` of Slight, Low or Medium and there are many other potential related types than can handle similar requests.
* Depending on the DayOfWeek the remaining enumerations of `Status` are handled by instances of `Delta`, `Zeta` and `Epsilon` and an unbounded number of related types. `Delta`, `Zeta` and `Epsilon` can be orchestrated together to create complex types.
What I have tried:
Class Alpha
<pre lang="java">import java.time.DayOfWeek;
import java.time.LocalDate;
public class Alpha {
private Beta beta = new Beta();
private Gamma gamma = new Gamma();
private Delta delta = new Delta();
private Epsilon epsilon = new Epsilon();
private Zeta zeta = new Zeta();
public Object alpha(Status s) {
if (s == Status.Slight || s == Status.Low) {
return beta.beta();
}else if (s == Status.Medium) {
return gamma.gamma();
}else {
DayOfWeek day = LocalDate.now().getDayOfWeek();
return switch (day) {
case MONDAY, TUESDAY -> delta.delta(day.name());
case WEDNESDAY, THURSDAY -> epsilon.epsilon(day.name());
case FRIDAY -> zeta.zeta(day.name());
case SATURDAY -> Integer.valueOf((delta.delta(day.name()) + epsilon.epsilon(day.name())));
case SUNDAY -> Integer.valueOf((epsilon.epsilon(day.name()) + zeta.zeta(day.name())));
};
}
}
}
**
Class Beta**
```
public class Beta {
public String beta() {
return "Executing " + this.getClass().getName();
}
}
```
**
Class Gamma**
```
public class Gamma {
public String gamma() {
return "Executing " + this.getClass().getName();
}
}
```
**
Class Zeta**
```
public class Zeta {
public int zeta(String value) {
return Integer.parseInt(value) + 7;
}
}
```
**
Class Delta**
```
public class Delta {
public int delta(String value) {
return value.hashCode();
}
}
```
**
Class Epsilon**
```
public class Epsilon {
public int epsilon(String value) {
return value.length();
}
}
```
**
Enum Status**
```
public enum Status {
Slight,
Low,
Medium,
High,
Extreme;
}
```
