# GRASP Principles Knowledge Base
## Overview
GRASP (General Responsibility Assignment Software Patterns) provides guidelines for assigning responsibilities to classes and objects in object-oriented design.
| Principle | Core Question | Goal |
|-----------|---------------|------|
| **Information Expert** | Who has the data? | Assign to class with information |
| **Creator** | Who creates objects? | Assign creation responsibility |
| **Controller** | Who handles system events? | Coordinate use case flow |
| **Low Coupling** | How to reduce dependencies? | Minimize interconnections |
| **High Cohesion** | How to focus responsibilities? | Keep related things together |
| **Polymorphism** | How to handle type variations? | Use polymorphic operations |
