design-patterns

Hi,

I am learning design patterns using C#. One of the challenges that I am facing is that they look similar. Could you please help me to distinguish them – basically when to use them? - Why not the other?

Bridge and Strategy
State and Strategy
Façade and Strategy
Composite and Strategy

I understand that there are lots of resources available in the web. However they does not treat this special question.

[Note: I am looking for implementation examples and rationale behind the selection; not mere explanations]

It would be great if you are taking examples from any of the following 1) E-Commerce 2) Payroll system 3) Banking 4) Retailing

Thanks for your understanding..

Thanks

Lijo
