Absolutely useful . I am used to Kotlin, but now I have to hack an app which was written completely in java. This helps a lot. Thank you!

you don't have to create a View object for it and then cast, since you'r doing a down casting, it means that Button Class inherits from the View class, so the Button class has the same methods of the View class. Therefore, you can initialize Button btn = findViewById(R.id.button); then do the same process without dealing with the casting

((Button) view).setText("DrCod3r"); // Simple as this

This is basic java and not specific to Android app development.
