in thread Parsing conditional expressions

A factory is a class or object that creates objects. It's a design pattern. Try googling for "object factory design pattern perl". The first several links look good.

The basic concept is that you ask the factory for an object given a set of parameters and it returns back an object of the appropriate class(es), if possible.
