Interfaces are a major component in Java and other programming languages. Using interfaces wisely will make code more maintainable. Using them poorly can lead to code that is difficult to understand and extend. Describe how the proper use of interfaces relates to each of the SOLID principles: • Single responsibility • Open/closed • Liskov substitution • Interface segregation • Dependency inversion
