TDWTF: Where factory.getInstance().getInstance().getInstanceFactory().getInstance().getInstanceFactory().getOrderFactory().getInstance().getInstanceFactory() compiles.

Yo dawg, we heard you like factories so we built a factory to return a factory so you can instantiate while you instantiate

It is valid JavaScript (and TypeScript, which compiles to JavaScript).

The fact that it most likely throws a TypeError is irrelevant. It still compiles.

@CodeBeater:
Boss:"Can you make it simpler?" "Sure!"
function createFactorySimple() { public IInstanceFactory getInstanceFactory();
public IInstanceFactory getInstance();
public IInstanceFactory getOrderFactory();
public IInstanceFactory getGroupFactory();
public IInstanceFactory getUserFactory();
}
Weird syntax you got there.

I don't know Java, so I'm not sure what "Boss:" does, but I assume it's a valid control statement that Python just doesn't have.

Anyway, according to PEP 8, you should never inline code after the colon; put the rest of the block on a new line, with proper indentation. Also, docstrings should be in triple-quotes, and not rely on string concatenation. So:

Boss:
    """Can you make it simpler?
    Sure!"""
    # rest of your code goes here

"The Factory pattern is an excellent way to solve a variety of programming problems using an object-oriented language."

No. No, it is not.
