I am not gonna talk to much just look at the meaningful context differences between these two examples.
Example 1
private void printGuessStatistics(char candidate, int count){ String number; String verb; String pluralModifier; if (count == 0) { number = "no"; verb = "are"; pluralModifier = "s"; } else if (count == 1) { number = "1"; verb = "is"; pluralModifier = ""; } else { number = Integer.toString(count); verb = "are"; pluralModifier = "s"; } String guessMessage = String.format( "There %s %s %s%s", verb, number, candidate, pluralModifier ); print(guessMessage); } Example 2
public class GuessStatisticsMessage { private String number; private String verb; private String pluralModifier; public String make(char candidate, int count) { createPluralDependentMessageParts(count); return String.format( "There %s %s %s%s", verb, number, candidate, pluralModifier ); } private void createPluralDependentMessageParts(int count) { if (count == 0) { thereAreNoLetters(); } else if (count == 1) { thereIsOneLetter(); } else { thereAreManyLetters(count); } } private void thereAreManyLetters(int count) { number = Integer.toString(count); verb = "are"; pluralModifier = "s"; } private void thereIsOneLetter() { number = "1"; verb = "is"; pluralModifier = ""; } private void thereAreNoLetters() { number = "no"; verb = "are"; pluralModifier = "s"; } } this is absolutely 😍
