Why should I prefer Optional, when for a single null check I can do my work. In optional we have to use isPresent method then get value. Also of method doesn't handle null check. What's the point to use optional?

Please use simple Java program initial what ever used program again we need to see another video for how that program works

[sudheery]

please add name() method in the enum Make as you are using name() in the video,

Is having an instance variable of Optional type a good practice?

This may be clean code than the old way . But seems too complicated
