Appendix D. Code after Transaction Scripts

This Appendix shows a version of the code from appendices B and C that extracts the domain logic from the page script into a Transactions class. Note how the original page script is now reduced to being a object creation and injection mechanism, and hands off most logic to the Transactions classes. Note also how the $failure, $credits, and $article_types variables are now properties on the Transactions class, and how the normalization/sanitizing logic and credit-calculation logic is part of the Transactions logic.
