MVVM is of which type of design pattern?

Question

After searching the net and reading about design patterns I came across 3 categories i.e. behavioral, creational, and structural design pattern (GOF).

I have been working with MVVM for some time. I wanted to know that MVVM falls into which category.

Answer 1

Model-view-view model is an architectural pattern, a category of patterns that the GoF book doesn't mention.

An architectural pattern describes how to organize an entire application or subsystem ("programming in the large") while the traditional patterns give solutions for smallscale problems ("programming in the small"). More info: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_pattern
