In this video you'll learn the visitor design pattern which you'll use to eliminate view controllers' code duplication logic.

That video helped me to understand the visitor pattern.

The example code needs to be much simpler.

After a 20-minute long video I really didn’t understand much. There was SO MUCH CODE. You should really explain better with diagrams all that stuff about visitor/visitable and double dispatch. Can’t say I learned something from this video.

Hey guys, thanks for your feedback. :]

Sorry this video turned out to be a little more challenging and code heavy than the others. I plan to update this series in the future, and I’ll definitely take another pass at using a simpler example to explain this pattern.

That would be great… the code implementation for this pattern was a bit long and difficult to understand for me.

I’m glad I was not the only one who didn’t understand this.

Almost felt dumb for a moment. Haha.

Look forward to the revised video.
