Human-centered Design

The MVC Pattern

Model

View

Controller

Logic and calculations separate from any data storage or user interface

User interface

Data access / Data storage

Equation = function() {
  
  this.numbers = [];
  this.operators = [];

}

Equation.prototype.toString = function() {
  
  var output = "";
  for (var o in this.operators) {
    var n = this.numbers[o];
    output += n + this.operators[o];
  }
  output += this.numbers[this.numbers.length-1];

  return output;

};
var eq = new Equation();
eq.numbers = [22, 33.4, 55];
eq.operators = ['+', '-'];

Package structure

Package structure

from .controller import *
from .view import *
from .mathengine import MathEngine
class MathEngine:

  def __init__(self):
    '''
    A constructor.
    '''

    print('Really new Math Engine instance.')

  def add(self, number1, number2):
    '''
    Takes 2 integers, and adds them.
    '''

    return number1 + number2

No user interaction here! Just Logic!

from .ui import UI
class UI:

  def __init__(self):
    '''
    '''

    print('New UI')

  def start(self, controller):
    '''
    We ask the user for 2 numbers.
    '''

    print('Please enter number1')
    number1 = input()

    print('Please enter number2')
    number2 = input()

    result = controller.add(int(number1), int(number2))

    print('Result:', result)

UI stuff here that calls the logic!

Package structure

Controller is separate! (All calculations, logic, algorithms  etc.)

View is separate! (All user interactions)

Everything is bundled as one package!

We can import the package and use it!

This was the VC (View and Controller) part of the MVC pattern!

Why structure the code like this?

Architecture is more important than features!

Remember this!

Properties

Methods

Class Diagram

Use Case Diagram

Activity Diagram

Sequence Diagram

Keep it simple!

It's a lifestyle!

Modularity

Split things up...

Subsystem

Module

vs.

independent value

can not function on its own

Information Hiding

treat stuff as black boxes!

Information Hiding

class MathEngine:

  def __init__(self):
    '''
    A constructor.
    '''

    print('Really new Math Engine instance.')

  def add(self, number1, number2):
    '''
    Takes 2 integers, and adds them.
    '''

    return number1 + number2
....

controller = MathEngine()
result = controller.add(int(number1), int(number2))
