Code Demo

Computer.java

Code Demo

In this scenario we have Computers, Keyboards and Mouses which all are of type ComputerComponent. We want to be able to 'visit' different types of Computer components by logging the following messages:

Looking at computer Corelli with memory 500 GB.
Looking at keyboard Mechanical keyboard which has 36 keys.
Looking at mouse Bluetooth mouse.

In particular though, anyone which is visiting a Computer must be validated prior to being able to visit.

Extend/modify the starter code to use the Visitor Pattern to allow different computer components to be visited.
