Implementing the model-view-controller pattern
The MVC pattern is useful mainly in application development and helps developers improve the maintainability of their applications by avoiding mixing the business logic with the user interface.

Examples of such concerns are the layers that are used in a layered design (data access layer, business logic layer, presentation layer, and so forth). Using the SoC principle simplifies the development and maintenance of software applications.
The MVC pattern is nothing more than the SoC principle applied to OOP. The name of the pattern comes from the three main components that are used to split a software application: the model, the view, and the controller. MVC is considered an architectural pattern...
