Java: Pattern Matching

Eliminates the need for separate casting. Frame the concept in practical terms so you can explain it during interview discussion.

Pattern matching for 'instanceof' allows you to declare a variable and cast in one step if the type matches. This reduces boilerplate and minimizes errors. For example, instead of having two lines to check and cast, you can use: `if (obj instanceof String s)`. This directly declares 's' as a String if 'obj' is indeed a String.
