When you are coding with immutable objects, there are many times where you not only need to initially define them but may want to create derivative versions of an existing instance. You might want to consider using chained methods to make your code more concise or to take advantage of default or optional parameters.

Typically, an immutable object has fields that are declared as final and are set in the object constructor. There are getters for the fields, but no setters since the values cannot be saved. Once created, the object state doesn’t change […]
