Java New Features Guide

Welcome to the Java New Features Guide! This book explores recent Java additions, complete with examples, explanations, and industry applications to help you
master these advancements in Java.

Java Version 17 - Key New Features

1. Pattern Matching for instanceof

Overview
Pattern matching simplifies type checks and casting by allowing you to declare and initialize a variable in a single line. This feature reduces boilerplate code and
improves readability.

Explanation
Prior to Java 16, using instanceof involved checking the type and then casting the object. Now, with pattern matching, you can combine these steps.

Example Code
Without pattern matching:

```java Object obj = "Hello, Java!"; if (obj instanceof String) { String str = (String) obj; System.out.println(str.toLowerCase()); }
