/**
 *
 * <p>The Strategy pattern (also known as the policy pattern) is a software design pattern that
 * enables an algorithm's behavior to be selected at runtime.</p>
 *
 * <p>Before Java 8 the Strategies needed to be separate classes forcing the developer
 * to write lots of boilerplate code. With modern Java, it is easy to pass behavior
 * with method references and lambdas making the code shorter and more readable.</p>
 *
 * <p>In this example ({@link DragonSlayingStrategy}) encapsulates an algorithm. The containing
 * object ({@link DragonSlayer}) can alter its behavior by changing its strategy.</p>
