Hands-On Design Patterns with Java

Use case

We will use a real estate land area calculation program to demonstrate how to implement the adapter design pattern. We will have two similar classes that do not inherit from the same class and cannot communicate directly with each other without an adapter. The Lot class will simply contain a length and width so acreage can be computed as square feet. This assumes small lot sizes. The Estate class acreage will be computed as acreage as those lots sizes are much larger.
