which operator for the dog question

Not sure what to enter for the last question in this quiz

I'm a dog groomer. Help me make sure that I'm only grooming dogs by filling in the blank.

void giveHaircut(Object[] objects) { for (Object object : objects) { if (object (what do I put here?)_ Dog) { // give haircut } } }

Hi there, Omar Ahmed ! This part of the quiz wants you to make sure that you're only grooming Dogs. So we need to check if the object is an instance of Dog. The instanceof is what you're looking for :smiley:

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
