Software patterns are abstract solutions to commonly occurring problems in software construction. Patterns is a literary form, that communicates best practices within a given field. Within object-orientation the seminal book: "Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software" provides a catalog of patterns for object-oriented design. These patterns support flexibility in the design, and are often used in object-oriented application frameworks. Within functional programming, a lot of experience can be found in design patterns as well.
