Describes either the authors or the book "Design Patterns: Elements of
Reusable Object-Oriented Software" published in 1995 by Addison-Wesley (ISBN
0-201-63361-2). The authors forming the Gang Of Four are Erich Gamma,
Richard Helm, Ralph Johnson and John Vlissides. They are also sometimes
referred to as `Gamma et. al.' The authors state at
http://www.hillside.net/patterns/DPBook/GOF.html "Why are we ... called
this? Who knows. Somehow the name just stuck." The term is also used to
describe any of the design patterns that are used in the book, referring to
the patterns within it as `Gang Of Four Patterns.'
