Description of the Demonstration:
This demonstration shows how to create an Adapter class which handles
calls to one type of class by translating them into appropriate calls
to another type of class. In the demonstration of the Strategy Design Pattern
a Duck object was created in which calls were made to functions to handle the
actions of "quack" and "fly". This demonstration shows how an adapter, TurkeyAdapter,
as a sub-class of Duck can take calls to a Duck object and translate them into
the appropriate "gobble" and "fly" functions for a Turkey object.
