Jitendra Chittoda

Jitendra Chittoda is a blockchain security engineer at ChainSecurity. His day job is to perform security audit on smart contracts and expose security vulnerabilities in Solidity and Scilla contracts. He has also developed a non-custodial, decentralized, P2P lending contracts for ETHLend. The Solidity contracts that he has developed or audited handle over $100 million worth of cryptoassets. He also served as a tech and security advisor in various ICO projects. Before finding his passion for blockchain, he coded in Java for over 11 years. He is the founder and leader of Delhi-NCR-JUG, a non-profit meetup group for Java. He holds a master's degree in computer applications and is regularly invited as a speaker at various conferences and meetups.

Behavioral patterns

The behavioral design patterns are used when a contract behaves differently according to its current state. In Solidity, we can have a contract in different states based on the values of its variables. These behaviors should be defined in the contract definition. According to the behavior defined in a contract, a contract transitions between different states. Let's look at some of the behavioral design patterns.

State machine pattern

In a state machine, the initial state and the final state are known for the machine/process. Between these two states, there could be more intermediate states. In each state, different behaviors or functions are allowed on the machine. For example, a vending machine...
