This is when you replace the algorithm with the new algorithm. Here is another good reason for keeping algorithms within a method.
String foundPerson(String[] people){ for (int i = 0; i < people.length; i++) { if (people[i].equals ("Don")){ return "Don"; } if (people[i].equals ("John")){ return "John"; } if (people[i].equals ("Kent")){ return "Kent"; } } return ""; }
String foundPerson(String[] people){ List candidates = Arrays.asList(new String[] {"Don", "John", "Kent"}); for (int i=0; i<people.length; i++) if (candidates.contains(people[i])) return people[i]; return ""; }
