Cohesion refers to how strongly related and focused the functions within a module are.
Elaboration:
- High cohesion โ Module performs a single, well-defined task (preferred).
- Low cohesion โ Module performs multiple unrelated tasks (bad design).
- Improves readability, maintainability, and reusability.
Example:
- High Cohesion: A
UserManager
class handles user creation, authentication, and updates. - Low Cohesion: A
UserManager
class also handles file operations and logging (should be separate).
