What are records in Java (Java 14+)?
Answer
Records are immutable data carrier classes that automatically generate constructors, accessors, equals(), hashCode(), and toString() based on their declared components, reducing boilerplate for DTOs.
Example
record Point(int x, int y) {}
Point p = new Point(1, 2);
p.x(); // 1
System.out.println(p); // Point[x=1, y=2]
