An effective way to use pattern to instead of multiple if else statements

We often face many if-else statements during the development, that's a little boring.
We can use pattern to change this, such as Strategy, and Command patterns.
Here is an example for Command pattern:

package com.stefli.test.pattern.ifelse;

public class IfElseTester {
	public enum Command {
		A {
			void exec() {
				p("A command executed!");
			}
		},
		B {
			void exec() {
				p("B command executed!");
			}
		},
		C {
			void exec() {
				p("C command executed!");
			}
		};
		abstract void exec();
	}

	public static void p(String line) {
		System.out.println(line);
	}

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		if (args.length != 1) {
			p("Wrong arguments!please try again!");
		}
		oldMethod(args);
		newMethod(args);
	}

	public static void oldMethod(String[] args) {
		if ("A".equalsIgnoreCase(args[0])) {
			p("A executed in old method!");
		} else if ("B".equalsIgnoreCase(args[0])) {
			p("B executed in old method!");
		} else if ("C".equalsIgnoreCase(args[0])) {
			p("C executed in old method!");
		}
	}

	public static void newMethod(String[] args) {
		Command.valueOf(args[0]).exec();
	}

}
