How do I implement the Builder Pattern in my code?

The Builder Pattern is a design pattern that allows you to construct complex objects step by step. Would you like a code example?

Yes, please provide a code example in Python.

Sure! Here's a simple example:

class Pizza:
    def __init__(self):
        self.toppings = []

    def add_topping(self, topping):
        self.toppings.append(topping)

class PizzaBuilder:
    def __init__(self):
        self.pizza = Pizza()

    def add_pepperoni(self):
        self.pizza.add_topping('Pepperoni')
        return self

    def add_mushrooms(self):
        self.pizza.add_topping('Mushrooms')
        return self

    def build(self):
        return self.pizza

# Usage
builder = PizzaBuilder()
my_pizza = builder.add_pepperoni().add_mushrooms().build()
print(my_pizza.toppings)  # Output: ['Pepperoni', 'Mushrooms']

What are the advantages of using the Builder Pattern?

The Builder Pattern provides better control over the construction process, allows for more readable code, and can help manage complex object creation.
