Wrapper

A wrapper is used to make writing computer programs easier by abstracting the details of the underlying implementation of a program. ¹ The wrapper's main purpose is to provide a 'different' way to use the wrapped object, such as a simpler interface, or adding some functionality. ²

It should simplify programs and abstract the complexity.
