See this problem: https://refactoring.guru/consolidate-duplicate-conditional-fragments The problematic code is: ``` if (isSpecialDeal()) { total = price * 0.95; send(); } else { total = price * 0.98; send(); } ``` The proposed solution is: ``` if (isSpecialDeal()) { total = price * 0.95; } else { total = price * 0.98; } send(); ``` yet it still duplicates the logic of calculating the total. A better solution would be something like this: ``` total = price * (isSpecialDeal() ? 0.95 : 0.98); send(); ```
