Answer
It allows swapping algorithms easily and promotes flexibility.
The Strategy Pattern lets you define a family of algorithms, encapsulate each one, and make them interchangeable. This is particularly useful in an e-commerce application where you might want to swap out different pricing or shipping algorithms based on customer preferences or promotions without changing the code that uses these algorithms.
