An IoC container, as found in the Spring Framework, is a common tool for implementing this principle. |

+|Module|(% style="text-align:justify" %)A distinct part of a software that encapsulates specific implementation details, such as functions, data structures, classes, interfaces, or even other modules. It exposes a concise API designed to perform specific tasks. These modules are typically crafted for reusability and improved code organization, thereby promoting a modular design. |
