Explain about instanceof operator in java

An instanceof in Java is a comparison operator which, given an object instance, 
checks whether that instance is of a specified type (class/sub-class/interface) 
or not. Just like other comparison operators, it returns true or false.

Comparing any object instance with a null type through instanceof operator 
returns a false.
  
Instanceof operator is used to test the object is of which type.

Syntax : <reference expression> instanceof <destination type>
Instanceof returns true if reference expression is subtype of destination type.
Instanceof returns false if reference expression is null.

what is an instance in java

Instance variables in Java are non-static variables which are defined in a class outside any method, constructor or a block. Each instantiated object of the class has a separate copy or instance of that variable. An instance variable belongs to a class.
