Massive if-else or switch blocks are a code smell. The Strategy pattern solves this by encapsulating each branch into its own object.
Whether it's different compression algorithms, discount calculations, or payment methods, the Strategy pattern makes your code infinitely more extensible and easier to test in isolation.
