A real-life example
The daily routine of a worker, especially for workers of the same company, is very close to the Template design pattern. All workers follow more or less the same routine, but specific parts of the routine are very different. This is shown in the following figure, provided by www.sourcemaking.com [j.mp/templatepat]. The fundamental difference between what is shown in the figure and implementing the Template pattern in Python is that in Python, inheritance is not mandatory. We can use it if it really benefits us. If there's no real benefit, we can skip it and use naming and typing conventions.
