The Liskov Substitution Principle

In the previous post, I wrote about Barbara Liskov research paper on data abstraction and hierarchy. In the paper, the author states a property which exists between type and subtype. That property later becomes known as the Liskov Substitution Principle. In this post, I continue to go over the principle in more details and give examples. The principle is one out of the five software design principles in SOLID:

• S: Single Responsibility Principle
• O: Open Closed Principle
• L: Liskov Substitution Principle
• I: Interface Segregation Principle
• D: Dependency Inversion Principle
