      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      In the link https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/datetime/iso/queries.html there's the following example:

        TemporalQueries query = TemporalQueries.precision();

      The same page, at the top, also says: "The Java Tutorials have been written for JDK 8".

      But this code doesn't compile in JDK 8, it gives the error:

       Type mismatch: cannot convert from TemporalQuery<TemporalUnit> to TemporalQueries

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      The variable should have the correct type:

      TemporalQuery<TemporalUnit> query = TemporalQueries.precision();
      ACTUAL -
      TemporalQueries query = TemporalQueries.precision();
