This is a simple refactoring applied when there are two subclasses with a common field. Take the field and move it to the parent class.
Consider the following class structure:
class BankAccount {
}
class CheckingAccount: BankAccount {
var balance: Float = 0
}
class SavingAccount: BankAccount {
var balance: Float = 0
}
The common balance field can be moved to the parent:
class BankAccount {
var balance: Float = 0
}
class CheckingAccount: BankAccount {
}
class SavingAccount: BankAccount {
}
This is less code to write and some common functionality can be also moved up.
The purpose of this refactoring is to have as little duplication as possible,
