A Factory method pattern (aka Factory pattern) is a creational pattern. The creational patterns abstract the
object instantiation process by hiding how the objects are created and make the system independent of the object
creation process. An Abstract factory pattern is one level of abstraction higher than a factory method pattern,
which means it returns the factory classes.
