If we're getting the device from a repository we have to do a check for null before calling Connect(). If however the repository returns the null object, no null check is required. The null check is done within the repository so the client code does have to worry about it. Null object code public interface IDevice     {         string Name { get ; set ; }         void Connect ();     }     public class RealDevice : IDevice     {         public string Name { get ; ...
