**Intent:** Separate the user interface into three interconnected components:
|
|
the model, the view and the controller. Let the model manage the data, the view
|
|
display the data and the controller mediate updating the data and redrawing the
|
|
display.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Applicability:** Use the Model-View-Controller pattern when
|
|
|
|
* you want to clearly separate the domain data from its user interface representation
