Abstract

I first stumbled on this principle when Jim Newkirk and I were arranging the source code directories of a C++ project. We realized that we could make the directories that contained detailed code depend upon the directories that contained abstract classes. This seemed like an inversion to me, so I coined the name "Dependency Inversion".
